I have a rainsuit that is made of what seems to be teflon coated nylon, and I am constantly and deathly afraid that any decent bump during a turn is gonna send me flying to the side and make me lose my footing. I thought my jeans were bad on my seat, but this rain suit makes me nearly **** my pants with every bump. I'm a lightweight with a skinny butt, so need to feel secure in my seat. I'm looking to find anything that might help with gripping, but it seems all the products out there are only meant for cooling and cushioning, and if they do help with grip there isn't any mention of it. I just need a cheap seat cover that I can remove. Any ideas? I dunno about you more experienced riders, but I hate feeling like I'm sitting on a melting block of butter.

 

I'm just the opposite - I like to slide across the seat into corners etc. I gave my leather pants away because it was like being glued to the seat! Jeans are the ones for me - if they get wet, they get wet.

 

When I had the Sundowner seat I used that rubberized kitchen cabinet liiners. They came in a roll of about 10'. It's effective and cheap. It may not last forever, but it's so cheap it doesn't matter. It's available pretty much at places like Target, Walmart and dollar stores.

 

I like that idea with the kitchen liners, but how did you secure it to the seat? Or not?

 

On the Sundowner seat I wrapped it under the seat where the pan is. They happen to have small tabs I was able to attach the liner to. I suppose heavy staples could work too. Maybe duct tape?

If the liner isn't firmly attached it may have a tendency to roll or wad up.

 

At the time it was the only color they had. There are black ones that match. After that picture I did make it fit better. With the right color and a few minutes of work it looks almost stock from a distance.
