Which one...or none of these?
...just beginning the process of playing around with the idea...
(The difference between B & D is that D has light grey in place of the white)

D. It won't get as dingy as B.

Yeah.. I would not do a mostly white seat because it will get dirty fast. Light gray can look dingy. White accents are nice

i like the red trim on C...can you do the red trim on D? (something about the red/grey/black combination looks really good.) they all look really nice, though!!
And I shall call her "Fiona."

Yup, D is probably best. Agree with Diblit, try D with a red stripe.

A - I am not voting based on what will keep clean but what looks the sharpest.

I like the red piping with layout D best. Replace the gray outline with red and you've got a good one.

I personally like D, plus it won't get as dirty looking over time most likely.

D. I like the looks of "A" ... For three seconds. Even new jeans will mess white up. "D" is cool AND practical.

Okay...since you are being kind enough to view and critique--round 2, with your comments in mind. The grey could be a little darker than pictured.
Yes, I do have WAY too much time on my hands the last couple of days.

For the first set, I'd say D. For the second set I'd say F.

I like "F" The bit of white piping really makes it pop.

Initially I liked D, then you posted K.
So K is my favorite then D.

E, F, K and L. In that order.
It all depends on what other visual things you may do the scooter.
I like E and F the best because the red catches the red of the stock rear shock. If you end up changing that rear shock, it won't matter as much.
I think E or F would look way sharp if you painted your rims red.
G and K would be cool if you added a couple of small accents in the same color as the center piping.

I'm mostly colorblind, so I did not see any difference between A and C or B and D at all (until I read the comment about the light grey)...
That being said, and considering my opinion with a BIG grain of salt, I still like D!

F...the white piping pops really nicely!
Even if it gets a bit gray after a few years, it'll still pop. (And a wipe down will help restore it)
