I'm at a loss as to what a King and Queen seat is. Can you elaborate?

Now there is an idea whose time has not come. The only thing that could be worse is if it had arm rests.

It's come and gone. My 82 honda cx500 d had one stock.

The current Suzuki S40 has one also.

Never seen a king and queen for a modern Vespa. I think you'd need to go the custom route if you really want one.

Haha! Same kind of picture popped into my mind. But imagining one of those on a Vespa was a bit much even for my imagination. Nice pan head, love that springer.

I have what cdwise linked on my PX. The SIP photo exaggerates the height of the rear rise It's a damn sight more comfortable than any other P series seat I have experienced.

I've owned an S40 for several years and you've lost me here. The S40 does not have a queen seat - a Goldwing has a queen seat.

Sorry, should have been clearer that I was posting the link for Kerri so she'd know what a king & queen seat was.

JC Whitney offered dyi kits for a lot of different motorcycle models. I'm not sure who made them, but the odds are that something exists that could be put on the GTS seatpan with relatively little modification.

Russell Daylong can make you one, and it will probably be the most comfortable seat you ever rode on, but it's not going to be cheap.

One thing worth considering is that if the queen part goes back too far, you aren't going to be able to open the seat if there's a topbox.

I have a king and queen seat on my 1978 p200 it's one of the most comfortable seats for long riding I have had. I started with the stock p200 seat with the springs underneath, could only ride for 1/2 hour At a time. Bought a Stella seat with a plastic frame much better than the standard p200 seat. After riding a 200 mile ride one day when and bought the king and queen seat. It does sit about 3/4" higher than stock but really offers the best tail cushion for long distance riding especially. Wife likes it the best of all the seats that have been on the P.

Don't know of one that would fit a modern off the shelf, try pirate upholstery or a local auto/motorcycle upholstery shop.
