I use my "Muffie" on longer rides and in the heat of summer.
Of course I'm a tightwad so mine is the home made $5.00 wash-mitt version.

DIY $5.00 Sheepskin
Works great my buns do not know that It's not the $100 version, that'll be our secret.

FWIW... Iv'e had it on 5 bikes in the last 9 years. I died it black but it has faded....badly.

Here's a few pics of it on my old FLHT circa2000

+1 for Ikea. $20 for a full pelt and trim it as you want it.
