05, XB12R Seat texture

[turbines]

Is it just me or do any other buellers dislike the texture of the seat. I can't slide around on this seat to my liking. It is not easy to move from side to side on it when cornering. Is there a way to make it more slippery? It's perforated and I don't want to mess up the foam by spraying something like Armorall or??

armorall would be fine. it's made for that material. (it's not actually perforated, just looks like it)

armorall definitely makes it slippery. I did it once when cleaning my bike, and never again for me. I got on it on the first ride out and nearly slid right off the back of the bike. Armorall is great for the slippery your looking for [up]

armorall will definetly work for slippery if that is what you are looking for...i would just be weary that you will be sitting on the ground faster than you know it.... especially with a 12.

I put some arorall on the other night and I like it better. I went sparingly and it did make a difference. I just didn't want to mess up the foam inside. I can move on the seat now. Before I put it on it felt like I was strapped down. I'm no knee dragger but I need to move around when I get frisky with that beast.
Like the ad says, "Own the Curves".

I'll have to try that. I'd be afraid of armorall, but it definitely is hard to move on this bike compared to my last.

Armor All is the product of Satan. Over time I have seen steering wheels , dash's & interior plastics turn to mush (literally) after using Armor All. It will cause you problems, if you doubt it then search it. If you are not going to keep the vehicle for a long period of time then don't worry but if you care about your bike/car/truck then find another product.
