I am looking for a seat pan for my 2013 GTS 300 as I want to make a seat that does not have the hump at the back so I can sit anywhere on the seat. I am tall and find that keep wanting to slide back a few inches. I would like to make the seat like a "P" seat. What year seat pans fit my 2013?

I don't want to alter my original seat just in case this experiment does not work.

You should be able to get a GTS seat/pan from a scooter wrecker. Play around with that and see how it goes.

A GT200 seat will fit your scooter as well. It is quite a bit flatter already than your GTS seat. I took down the GT200 seat at the front, and built it up in the crevice. I added a 3/4" gel pad right at the hump. Plenty of room to adjust my position on long rides.

That's what I am looking to do. You did all that yourself? Looks good!

I did do it myself. I restretched the factory vinyl after I reshaped the seat. The mesh cover was $6.00 off Ebay. It's about 3/8" tall and lets plenty of air flow under you. It also keeps your pants off the wet vinyl should you get caught in the rain.
