Turned my TriGlide seat over to a local upholsterer for some seat mods. Gel & high density memory foam for a better ride. He informed me that the foam padding under the seat cover was soaking wet. Best I can recall, the trike sat out during a thunderstorm in Ogallala Nebraska overnight about two weeks ago. Live & learn. If your H-D is going to be exposed to the elements, cover the seat with a rain cover or maybe a rain-proof treatment. I'm sure it would have dried out in time, but methinks the motor company should have designed their seats to withstand a little rain.

 

There is something wrong with your seat. Should be able to be it the rain all day

 

If it was still wet after two weeks it must of have been a hell of a thunderstorm
I would think you could soak in a bucket and it would dry within two weeks.

My seat was in a 20 minute downpour and as far as I'm aware the inside of the seat never got wet.
That being said, I believe a seat cover probably is a cheap investment.

 

Here in florida it rains damn near everyday this time of year. My bike sits out all day while I'm at work and my seat gets wet until my azz dries it off. Sometimes it will be wet for a couple of days. I'm thinking seat cover also!

 

You've got a coolant leak somewhere.....wait never mind

 

Two weeks does seem like a long time for seat padding to remain wet if it did indeed get soaked by rain.

Just to rule out other sources of moisture, do you have a bladder control problem?

 

Live and learn, Next time roll up the windows.

 

Mine did that when it had a small opening in the stitching. My *** should get wet for a week after a rain. Had it recovered with leather. The upholsterer said my foam was rotted from the moisture.

 

Well, that Depends.

 

A seat that has buttons in it that gets wet from a good rain. Will give you a wet *** for two or three days. That's y you don't see seats with them .
