A seat kit turns a stand-up electric scooter into a ride you can sit on, but only the kit made for your model is a safe fit. Here are the maker seat kits we carry, what each one fits, and how to fit and ride with one.
The short answer
An electric scooter seat attachment, or seat kit, bolts to the deck or clamps to a seat post so you can ride sitting down. Only fit the kit the maker lists for your model: the Hiboy seat saddle fits the S2 family, KUKIRIN, Segway, iENYRID and Teewing each make kits for named models, and JOYOR sells the original seat for three of its scooters. Check the seat height range and the payload limit, fit it with the scooter powered off, and recheck every bolt before you ride.
A seat attachment is a post and saddle that mounts to a stand-up electric scooter. Most bolt to the deck through a bracket. Others clamp onto a seat post the scooter already has. Either way, the scooter stays the same underneath: same motor, same battery, same brakes.
This guide is about adding a seat to a scooter you own or plan to buy. If you are still choosing between a seated model and a stand-up one, start with our guide to the electric scooter with seat, which covers who seated scooters suit and the models with a seat in the box.
Every kit below is made by the scooter’s own maker for named models. Pick the option that matches your scooter on the product page.
Several scooters also come in a With Seat version at checkout, so you can order the seat already matched. NANROBOT offers it on models such as the D4+MAX and N6 72V, and KUKIRIN on the G2, G4 and G2 Master.
One seat attachment we carry is not for scooters. The Hiboy HC-01 is a go-kart frame for 6.5 to 10 inch hoverboards, rated for riders up to 270 lbs. It will not fit an electric scooter.
These stand-up models have a seat kit from their own maker in our catalog. Check the product page of the kit for the exact version.

Skip universal seats. A seat loads the deck and stem in a specific way. A kit made for another model, or a generic clamp-on seat, may not suit the frame or its limits, and can affect a warranty claim. See our warranty page.
Power the scooter off and follow the maker’s instructions for your kit. Most kits are simple bolt-on jobs, but the details differ by model.
If anything near the wiring or battery has to be moved to fit the kit, stop and ask a qualified technician or contact us first.
Sitting changes how the scooter handles. Your weight moves back and down, your arms reach further, and you cannot absorb bumps with your knees the way you do standing.
Some places define an electric scooter partly by whether it has a seat, so a seat can change how a scooter is classed. Check your state and city rules before you ride; our guide to electric scooter laws lists the questions to ask. This is general information, not legal advice.
Browse every seat kit and add-on in accessories. Every order ships free to the lower 48 states. Faster seated setups benefit from calm steering too; our sibling guide on the electric scooter steering damper explains what a damper does, and electric scooter parts explained covers the rest of the scooter.
No. Only fit a seat kit the maker lists for your model. A kit made for another scooter may not suit the deck, the stem or the weight limits.
It depends on the kit. Hiboy lists 20.9 to 30.7 inches for its S2 family and S2 MAX saddles. The iENYRID ES1 kit is height adjustable too. Check the kit’s product page for your model.
Yes. The Segway seat kit, for example, weighs 9.5 lbs. Check whether your scooter still folds with the seat fitted before you count on carrying it.
The Segway E3 Pro, F3 and ZT3 Pro. The kit adds a padded seat and a 10L storage box and carries up to 265 lbs.
Most are bolt-on jobs. Power the scooter off, follow the maker’s instructions, tighten every bolt and recheck them after your first ride.

Three wheels mean no balancing at a stop, a seat and room for shopping. They also mean a wider, heavier machine that corners differently. Here is how to decide.
Teens sit between kids bikes and full size adult bikes, and the right choice depends on height, weight and experience more than age. Here is how the teen-friendly models we carry compare.
