Honda motra ct50 as a JDM model did not come over here and was not made for long , the seat goes before the rear rack so just needs something to fit in there, with 4 straight sides it should not be too difficult.

Mrs Capitano has ridden pillion on a seat of similar proportions, made from two Toolstation kneeling mats glued together.
OK, it wasn't her favourite pillion seat, but far from the worst.

Re: hello new motra owner
There is a chap in the iow who used to be the go to guy for these,
Also look after your exhaust as there also unobtainable,
And if your thinking of dropping a 12v c90 in her I wouldn't bother,
The output shaft on your 50 is extended to push the front sprocket out further to allow for the tyre sizes,

The guy on the Isle is Darren Penn he has a Motra as a profile picture on his facebook page. I have asked him if he has one.
The C70 with the big valve head would be a better swap keeping the same bottom end it was as fast as the 6 volt 90.
