A kit for relocating the rider position on a motorcycle or a trike with a standard-length subframe, a standard-length swing arm, standard-length side panels, a standard-length seat, a standard drive, and a standard-length exhaust, includes an extended subframe, an extended swing arm, extended side panels, an extended seat, an extended drive conversion, and an exhaust extender. The extended subframe is extended from the standard-length subframe. The extended swing arm is extended from the standard-length swing arm. The extended side panels are extended from the standard-length side panels. The extended seat is extended from the standard-length seat. The extended drive conversion is for extending the length of the standard drive. The exhaust extender is for extending the length of the standard-length exhaust. Whereby, when the kit is installed on the motorcycle or the trike, the rider position on the motorcycle or the trike is relocated backwards.

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.

A vehicle body frame structure for a saddle riding type vehicle, the vehicle body frame structure includes main frames formed by coupling main tubes extending rearwardly downward from a head pipe supporting a front wheel via a front fork to pivot frames supporting a rear fork by rear end portions of the pivot frames, and a rear frame in a rear of the main frames, the rear frame being formed of a fiber reinforced resin and supporting a seat. The rear frame includes upper side attaching portions attached to the main frames, a pair of left and right upper side portions linearly extending rearward from the upper side attaching portions, and a cross member laterally coupling the upper side portions to each other. The cross member includes a bulging portion bulging above the upper side portions.

A seat assembly for a vehicle having a longitudinal axis has a seat pan, a cover support adjacent to the seat pan and a seat cover comprising an upper surface and a first longitudinally extending side surface and a second longitudinally extending side surface. A heating and cooling module is disposed at least partially within the cover support. An air inlet is in communication with the heating and cooling module. The air inlet communicates air from a port in the seat cover to the heating and cooling module. An ambient condition sensor generates an ambient condition signal. A user interface generates a user setting corresponding to a comfort condition. A controller is coupled to the ambient condition sensor and the heating and cooling module. The controller controls the heating and cooling module in response to the user setting and the ambient condition signal.

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.
