After riding a Lambretta with single saddle I thought id try and fit similar on my scooter as it was very comfy !
First off All-Styles were pretty good , free delivery and it arrived day after I ordered !
Ordered "buddy " seat fixed to a luggage rack and single saddle , both for V50/90/100 Primavera etc , guy at All styles said nothing else needed and will all bolt straight on. Not sure if thats strictly true !
Luggage rack fitted OK , removed pad and dropped a bolt though base and through body were seat post usual goes followed by 2 bolts through luggage rack where petrol tank fixes to frame . OK I think.
Saddle has a hinged plate , the hinge bolts to the frame like a normal saddle but the plate / saddle seem very loose and the plate / saddle base moves around as it sits on luggage rack as metal on metal. There is one hole on saddle base plate that lines up with a hole in luggage rack , not sure if thats supposed fix together but seems a bit of a pain if bolted together as that stops seat lifting up ?
I must be missing something or being a bit thick which is very likely !
Will stick a few photos on and appreciate any thoughts !

Thanks for that. Bit of a ball ache , even with the different tank the saddle base will still land on the luggage rack ?

Managed to make it work with some help but not sure how it will be in action . Will see if it holds up on ride to MOT !!! Hinge crimped to reduce side ways movement, cut down seat post fixed on base which lines up with hole in saddle base . Should work but by no means perfect .
