Provided is a seat frame for a saddled vehicle capable of increasing the coupling rigidity at the separable rear end and having aesthetic aspect. A seat frame of a vehicle body frame includes a front part fixed to the vehicle body frame and a rear part that can be disconnected from the front part, the front part and the rear part being separated at a rear part of the vehicle body. The front part and the rear part are fixed with a fastening member that engages from the inside of the vehicle width direction. The front part has a hollow rear end, and the rear part includes a solid engagement part at the front end. The fastening member as a bolt penetrates through the lateral wall at the rear end to be screwed with the engagement part inserted into the rear end. The rear part includes the engagement part and a pipe member to be connected to a rear part of the engagement part.

A bicycle saddle can be customized to a rider's body to achieve desired support and comfort. The support shell is configured to support a rider's body and can be heated by an external heater and/or at least one internal thermal element operable to heat the bicycle saddle such that the saddle is molded to the rider.

A vehicle seat includes a seat base, a seat foam supported by the seat base, and a support pad positioned between the seat base and at least a portion of the seat foam. The support pad being formed of a combination of a first material and a second material. A seat cover covering the support pad and the seat foam. The first material has a first recovery hysteresis and the second material has a second recovery hysteresis that is less than the first recovery hysteresis.

A seat adapter for a vehicle includes a base portion, a channel, and a dovetail portion. The channel extends across a width of the seat adapter and is configured to receive a seat frame. The dovetail portion extends rearward from a distal end of the seat frame. The dovetail portion is configured to increase a total seat length.

A vehicle seat assembly includes a seatback rotationally coupled to a base at a seat pivot. A securing pin is coupled with the seatback. An inertial latch is operable about a latch pivot to define an idle position defined by the inertial latch biased distal from the securing pin, and a deployed position defined by an opposing directional force biasing the inertial latch into selective engagement with the securing pin wherein the seatback is maintained in a predetermined rotational position. A guide latch is biased against the inertial latch and having an idle notch and a deployed notch. The idle notch selectively maintains the inertial latch in the idle position. The deployed notch secures the inertial latch in the deployed position in response to the opposing directional biasing force.

A footrest assembly for mounting to a vehicle rail. A position of the assembly along the rail is adjustable. A footrest is connected to a rail mount to be pivotable about a footrest pivot axis between an adjustment position allowing adjustment of the assembly along the rail and a locked position. A clamping member, movable by the footrest relative to the rail mount, is in a releasing position when the footrest is in the adjustment position and in a clamping position when the footrest is in the locked position. When the clamping member is in the clamping position and the assembly is mounted to the rail, a portion of the clamping member and a portion of the rail mount are disposed on opposite sides of the rail and the clamping member applies a clamping pressure to the rail. The locked position sets the position of the assembly along the rail.

A seat assembly for a vehicle having a longitudinal axis includes a seat pan, a cover support adjacent to the seat pan, and a seat cover that has an upper surface, 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. The seat assembly further comprises a first air inlet in communication with the heating and cooling module. The first air inlet communicates air from a first port in the seat cover to the heating and cooling module.
