Accessory advice/opinion needed....

Post by Mulliganal »

Do you think a checkered seat cover in the same tan and creme to match my wheel cover and backrest would be overkill?

Like this but in the Tan and Creme

I think yes (overkill). Unless you went with the sides being that checkered pattern, and the top being either single color.

I think it would be cool to 2tone the seat, side one color, top the other...

Thanks Tom, I like that idea; perhaps a creme top with the tan sides. I'll have to run this around in my mind for a while.

I asked the wife ( art major ) and she said too much...Looks good the way it is.

Viney, our wife's have great taste; mine said the same thing. I decided she is fine the way she is.

The checkered seat might be a bit much but the two tone idea seems pretty cool.

When it comes to scooters I don't think there is such a thing as overkill :mrgreen:

I really dig the checkers and have the same creme Stella. I tend to agree that there might be too much going on with the seat, the spare cover, and the backrest. But some checker action up front might be a nice subtle touch?

I like what you've done with yours and will likely emulate some your add-ons once some funding comes through.

Just let me know legalgooner and I'll give you the contact info for the guys that made my tire cover and backrest. The price was very reasonable.
