The first is the feeling of sitting up. If it is too hard, just thinking about the next journey will make you shocked. If the sides of the cushion are still protruding, it will be really bad! The inner thigh will become more and more painful.
The cushion is the most direct thing the rider can immediately feel the difference
Therefore, the comfort of the cushion will directly affect the riding experience
Although there is almost no such worst situation in the Vespa GTS Motorcycle Seater of the factory, it is quite common to modify the seat cushion. For example, if you want to reduce the height of the seat cushion, only the foam inside is cut off, which is commonly known as “knockout”. This is the most common situation that caused the cushion problem just mentioned. The cut off the cushion foam not only makes it uncomfortable to sit up, but also makes it difficult to put down the protruding feet on both sides of the cushion, which causes the opposite effect of poor grounding. , This is only after many failures before I can tell everyone so categorically.
I believe that the angle of the seat cushion is quite interesting. Although it has become less recently, in the past, even the original seat cushion was mainly used in super sports cars. The seat surface of the cushion was mostly inclined forward and concave. This should be It is a thoughtful design that takes into account the acceleration of gravity to prevent the body from rushing forward. However, this design always moves forward in bad riding conditions such as emergency braking or bumps on the road. The most common situation is that if you continue to ride without paying attention to this situation, the state of wrist support will affect your body. When you notice something wrong, the riding posture has become very strange. If you compare the past with the current motorcycle A very interesting phenomenon will be found in the body of the car, that is, you should find that the car with the same name is different from time to time, and the inclination angle of the seat cushion is also different.
The seat height of the sports car is not only not close to the people, but the angle is also relatively forward.
The same cushion leather is very annoying if it is too slippery! Even though this is because the material of the seat cushion is leather, there is no alternative, but the lack of friction is the same as the tires, and the grip will be reduced. Especially when it comes to super smooth cushions and jeans, it can be said to be a catastrophe, because on the spot It will become a posture movement meeting (laughs). Therefore, when washing the car, the seat cushion and fuel tank will not be waxed. In addition, if you want to hold a stable riding position, you will wear leather pants, but even if it takes so much effort, but the body is still easy to move when riding, it is recommended to choose low-cost And the effective method is to change the cushion leather.
In addition, there is the height of the seat cushion. When you straddle the seat cushion, you will still care about the height of the seat cushion. Of course, off-road vehicles with long suspension shock absorbers are of course nothing to say. In order to increase the turning angle of the grip, the sports car must raise the body. Ground clearance: After the minimum ground clearance of the car body is pulled up, the seat cushion is easy to increase along with it.
Recently, there are also some models that raise the center of gravity of the car body, so that it can bring out a light and pleasant feeling when turning sideways. Therefore, the minimum height of the car body is specifically increased. Sports cars with high ground clearance are also included. This type of cars, cruise cars and other cars are the opposite, with a low center of gravity, stability and ease of straddling as the primary considerations, so most of them have low cushions. As all readers know, most imported cars from Europe and the United States will have low cushion specifications for the Asian market, and some models even include low cushions as standard equipment. This is of course very moving.
By the way, if there are two specifications for the low seat and high seat for the same car model, it is recommended to make a decision after actual test rides and comparisons. It is true that the grounding performance of the low seat cushion should be better, but after you start riding, Due to the natural sense of unity with the motorcycle, the lightness of the grip control, and the better riding vision, sometimes the high seat cushion will win out. What should be the priority when choosing a cushion? However, this can only be decided by yourself. Please come to worry about this problem after the actual test ride and comparison, because this is also one of the flavours of riding a motorcycle.
