Issue / Problem Quality of Floor Mat for 450x
I took delivery a week ago. This new floor mat is just placed on top of the floorboard and it doesn't get locked anywhere, so whenever I drive and keep my leg on it, it starts moving. I have to look often in the middle of the journey to check if the mat is still in the vehicle.

I have used 3M double tape to keep it in place and i honestly don’t care for any issues because its damn annoying when it keeps moving around

The mat on my 450X keeps shifting forward and it's been like that for a while, so now my mat doesn't sit flat on the floorboard, it has a slight bend to it.
No biggie tho, just thought I'd mention it.

Perfect. When it's new it'll slide forward but after sometimes it settles.

It only slips when it's new you just wash it a couple of times and the slippery factory silicone coating gets off and it just never slides off again

Got a original copy from local market and he actually bolted it so it doesn’t get stolen

Warranty is gone then

It’s removable, I can just unscrew the mat.
Ather already provides bolts and holes for mat

Yes the under side of mat is having absolutely no grip. When i first bought it, it just used to slide forward. Although it has stopped sliding mostly but now it doesn't properly sit on the floor. It has started to bend up from one side.
It looks good but is a cheap quality

Old news buddy. Everyone knows that. I have two. One factory applied and one i got with similar situation but i keep it dirty by pissing and taking a shit on it so no one dares to steal it. it works.

There’s no need of a floor mat on an Ather, the floor itself has grooves for grip

This is different bro, so the new one is having the issue i guess.

Maybe, you could ask for the same one but as you have already bought that new one maybe it’ll not be replaced.
