We do not slide.

Two things prevent it.

Pro-Action shocks and Alaska Leather Sheep Skin.

Warm in the winter, cool in the summer, no slide and zero pressure points.

I also slide around a bit, it's REALLY annoying, especially when I wanna have some fun, and I slide back onto the passenger pad. When I manage to get it done, I'm having my seat reupholstered with a suede textured material. That oughta solve my problem.

Rub some pine tar on the seat. No more sliding around after that.

Already mentioned, the Alaska Leather Sheepsin Co. should have a proper fitting cover for your bike's seat...it adds about 1/2" to the seat height but it's comfy and will keep you from sliding.

I think it would be too much seat or not enough ***

I don't want to be locked down on my seat. I slide around on it on purpose sometimes when cornering hard. It's a Mustang though, that and I grip the tank with my knees when I really need to be locked in.

Dont laugh... On my stocker the back was slippery. I used Lexol and it stopped. My Mustang and my Saddlemen no sliding at all.
