    New Leather

    I finally invested in some leather pants and boots. What a weird feeling. They need to be broken in for sure. I don't know if it was the cold or what, but I was sliding all over my seat. Anyone have any suggestions?

    oh ya, you'll slide... it's normal & that's a good thing, makes it easier to get your ass off the seat

    Hmmm, no sliding here.

    Definately takes a little sweat and saddle time to break them in. I think they might stick better to the seating surface in warmer weather now that I think of it. Probably only marginally at best.

    I bought them from someone on sportbikes.net. He listed them and I gave him an offer. Just lucky. They are brand new. I think he said he used them once. Can't tell, look and feel brand new.
