Nice looking scoot. Wasn't sure what the brown seat would like like but it fits the look really well. Congrats.

I went with the SE Street Cannons. They sound better than stock to me, but aren't obnoxiously loud, plus I just love the way they look!

Thank you everyone for the replies! I won the brown seat on ebay, and love the way it looks. Im still plan on adding Wild 1 Chubby Mini Apes - 10". That's my old RK in the background, and it has 12.5" Chubbies, I loved them! On long trips I would sometimes have numbness issues, especially on the highway running for 8-10 hours. Hoping to avoid that with my hands slightly lower.

A couple of inches lower will make all the difference for preventing numbness in your arms. A general rule is having your hands a bit lower than than shoulder height should allow the blood flow to your hands and arms. If your hands are higher than your shoulders, blood flow is restricted and your hands may experience numbness.
