Hi guys.
I've been searching for 3 Wheeler seat dimensions.
Does anyone know the seat back width (full cabin) and the individual seat cushion width? Could a child or small third person squeeeeeze, if necessary in a pinch (literally), into the cockpit and ride on the center console for brief distances, sharing leg space with the passenger? (No need to explain that it wouldn't be comfortable!)
And, while I've got your attention, could someone please explain how the pedals adjust to accommodate drivers' leg length?

I would say there's no chance of a third bum on that seat, however small.

Here's a good cockpit pic showing the console hump. Seems that one small bum cheek could ride on the hump, flying the other cheek over the poor smothered passenger. After all... it IS a Morgan... one has to be creative. I used to carry three adults in my Isetta, and we ended up being better friends for it! By the way, doesn't the interior look superb??? Major design kudos.

By the way, a great accessory would be a raised center-mount cushion that would fit over the hump. A perfectly British double-decker solution!

Good news. It seems that California would not require seat belt usage, based on the 3 Wheeler's motorcycle classification. (I always use seat belts, but it's still nice to have a sense of freedom.) Nor would the total number of passengers be mandated, it seems, therefore allowing a child to ride along as a third occupant.

....and the individual seat cushion width?
The factory told me that the seat width (where the bum is supposed to be) is 370 mm.

14.57 inches. That's an intimate number even for a skinny guy like me! Right now I'm sitting at a car dealership getting service... I'll see if the cashier can grab a ruler and give me a quick bum sizing.
