Besides, I'm pretty sure Vinyls are endangered.

Yes. Especially the Nauga's used for the Naugahyde.

All you need is saddle soap and some conditioner for leather and forget about any possible rain.

A rain storm isn't going to hurt if you take care of it.

No bag. I used to have a fork bag but hated it. I'm considering a swing arm bag but probably not until after the new seat. Or maybe I'll do the bag first. I dunno. I'm as indecisive as my wife at the moment.
