>>the slopeback seat
I assume you mean an Ancillotti looking one for one person only?
>>A different shaped under seat bucket (pet carrier) that may take a helmet
Not sure I understand. A helmet fits under the seat. Doesn't yours?
Some good ideas, thanks, we'll keep looking checking back here.

The under seat bucket will only accept some helmets mostly small size or open face Not many full face or lrg helmets will fit under......

yes, slope following the line of the rear of the scoot, possibly with a little sebring style rack on the slope and little cut outs in the seat base so you can do away with the grab rail and use the seat to help manoeuvre the scoot.........................
sounds gay i know but better than losing the scoot in a moment of instability on your driveway 
oh, and the slope HAS to cover the grill at the back, it's a security thing

| There's a bit of a discussion going on, on the Lambretta Club G.B forum over the hassles / costs of importing stuff from the far East. Do you have a U.K agent to purchase the GTS items from ?? |

Tinted indicator lenses would be great, and a stainless bag/helmet hook

Thanks again for all the suggestions.
By the way, if anyone with a GTS300 wants a free leather seat cover, see our new products page.

|
|
been a customer a few times, never had a complaint. You'll need to get busy on the GTS side though, very little in there so far. The GTS has been about for a fair few years and there are still very few after market goodies available.
Hope that changes in the near future.
Mike
