Slippy Pillion seat .....Any bright ideas??

Hi all,

Searched the site but cannot find anything that helps

Wondered if anyone has experience of slippy pillion seat syndrome!!

Just replaced my GSX-R 600 with another one that wasn't beat up & bent. Apparently that's what happend when the slide down the road. Wish I'd been told sooner!!

Anyway, the pillion seat is really really really slippy!!
Tried cleaning with detergent & just water (hot & cold) no effect.

Any assistance greatly appreciated

triboseat. search on ebay.

ive put these on all my bikes and they are great. stops the pillion sliding into you under breaking and keeps them stable in the corners.
