Put a little Armor-All on the seat.
Next sharp curve, and you won't have to listen to her complain anymore.

Get a set of these: https://cimg5.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.hdf...a92a5c3e75.jpg

Does two things. 1. definately keeps you or your passenger from sliding around in the seat and, 2. helps minimize swamp *** when riding in hot weather.

50 bucks on Ebay. H-D sells some also but much more costly.

I use some heavy duty automotive velcro to attache them to the seats.

A friend of mine accidentally spilled some break fluid on his vinyl seat and that place on his seat became no slip , so he used a cotton ball to do the rest of the seat, and he loved it. Now this happened back in the early eighties, and I would advise going to an upholstery shop and getting a piece of scrap of vinyl to test this on.
