| Description | BENCH SEAT VINTAGE SPRINT FOAM CLASSIC COMFORT **MADE IN ITALY BY NISA** (7550CCBL 0727) Extremely comfortable foam-bodied vintage replica seat with the look of the ORIGINAL Vespa Sprint standard SEAT. This seat is designed to look vintage, but built to modern day quality and comfort. Includes a super strong magnetic mechanism to hold it closed.
This will fit most large frame vintage Vespas from the 1960's to 1970's. It will NOT fit on the GS160, SS180, and Rally unless you install a flat gas tank. Most owners of vintage Vespa scooters such as the Sprint or GL models are particularly conscious of maintaining its completely original 'factory' look. The choice of seat plays an obvious role, but providing the appearance is identical aftermarket items are also fully acceptable. The ORIGINAL vintage Vespa seats have a major constructional disadvantage, when compared to the modern alternatives. The wire springs beneath the minimally-padded vinyl seat cover make themselves felt over longer distances. The daily urban commute or shopping trip usually presents no problems, providing the complete construction and assembly of the whole seat is 100% intact and functional. The inadequacies of the ORIGINAL seats are exposed mercilessly over longer trips though, with the rider needing a tough behind! They are also prone to damage and wear, with the cover slipping easily out of position. This is where even the morning ride to work becomes an issue, especially for your rear end. |
