A method for fixing a travel container to a motor vehicle includes arranging a vehicle with at least one back seat fixed to a frame of the vehicle. The seat includes a lower plate securable to a frame portion of the vehicle and a seat portion, opposite to the lower plate, is suitable as a user/passenger seat. A travel container has a container body, defining a storage compartment. A fixing plate associated with the container body includes a mount for the travel container. The travel container fixing plate is interchangeable with the lower plate of the seat. The seat is removed to provide access to an under-seat compartment and to the frame portion supporting the seat. The travel container is fixed to the vehicle to fix the fixing plate of the travel container to the frame portion supporting the seat. The travel container is arranged to replace the seat.

A motorcycle, or saddle type vehicle, is disclosed that may have at least one seat and at least two wheels, at least one hub electric motor. A large dry storage compartment may be positioned between the rider and steering mount. A rechargeable battery and battery management system may be located below the storage compartment in a battery housing, where the battery housing may be a structural component of the chassis. A rear electronics housing may be attached to and located behind the battery housing, and may contain major electrical components such as electric motor controller and contactors. Two structural members, or frame side rails, may form sides of the storage compartment and extend between the electronics housing and steering mount. The electronics housing may also connect to the battery housing such that the battery housing reinforces and strengthens the chassis, or structural frame. A secondary storage compartment may be located under the seat. Additionally, the storage compartments may have electronic locking mechanisms that are activated via a wireless connection to a remote electronic device. The rear suspension may include a swingarm on one side of the vehicle.

A riding vehicle includes: a main body supporting a wheel and on which a steering stay and a seat stay are erected at an interval in a traveling direction; a handle provided on the steering stay; a pedestal portion fixed to an upper end of the seat stay; a seat rotatably connected to the pedestal portion, and configured to switch between a riding state where the seat stands upright to cover the pedestal portion from above so as to be in an arrangement suitable for riding and a cart state where the seat is inclined in a traveling direction away from the steering stay to open an upper portion of the pedestal portion so as to be in an arrangement suitable for conveyance movement with baggage placed thereon; and a stopper interposed between the pedestal portion and the seat and regulating the seat in the riding and cart states.

A seat apparatus includes a vehicle seat including a cushion member having a bottom portion with a plurality of recessed portions, a plurality of air cells configured to expand by injection of compressed air, and a fluid supply mechanism configured to supply the fluid to the air cells. In the seat apparatus, at least one of the recessed portions is provided at a portion of the bottom portion of the cushion member positioned at a seating portion of the vehicle seat, the hip of a passenger being placed on the seating portion. Each air cell is expandable in a corresponding one of the recessed portions. The fluid supply mechanism is configured to expand at least one air cell by supplying the compressed air thereto and to change the at least one air cell to be expanded by switching a fluid supply destination.
