I have recently purchased a Lance Duke 250cc Scooter that needs some work. Besides starting issues one of the things it needs is a replacement seat. I am having trouble finding it anywhere on the web. Starting problems I believe is old gas.

It was snake skin material and Bing, Google will bring up some places to purchase the material. 1 1/2 yds will be plenty. Went back to the orginal Scootdawg site to try and find the post, but with no luck.

I made a cheap seat cover for my Bali 250.. Pretty easy with $10 vinyl material, leather strips, hole puncher:, cut material to about same size, punch holes around outside edge, interlink together with leather straps, put over seat and staple edges on back of seat.. Sort of simple.. Attachments:
