Fantastic product. Fitted on my Africa Twin and rode 450 miles in 30 - 38°c and was a game changer in levels of comfort. Looks great on the bike, very functional.

I have this kind of material on my custom Kontour seat and I LOVE it. Here in Louisiana it is VERY hot and humid most of the year and it really does stop my butt from sweating and keeps it dry and cool. Kontour Custom seats calls it Polar Mesh. I had it on my Triumph till I sold the bike and I now have it on my ZRX1200R. Their seats are very expensive but worth every penny. Mine are not just seat covers though, so maybe that's the difference.

I've found the opposite, when fitted to the husky 701 it gave me more grip for my jeans, the seat comfort was improved and when it rained my bottom stayed dry

I've had them on multiple bikes for years bought the first ones from Vietnam about 6 years ago , very comfortable.. wouldn't have anything else.. I do take them off in autumn though because my arse gets too cold.. They do keep your arse dry in the wet and cool in the hot months There seem to be a lot of things you didn't notice..........

It must keep your arse cool. They make really cheap ones here in Thailand. They work well, so I've been told. Could you do a review of your Dainese Drake mesh pants, please? I need a pair of something similar.

Me too Bought one. Tried it. Slid more with it on. Gave it away.

Maybe you could wash it and use it as a grocery net...I cannot imagine this on my lovely Italian bike (Benelli). It looks like the type of netting bag material you store fitness equipment in...ever tried sitting on that? After a while, I really get the feeling that the pattern is printed onto my bottom.

@@RocketMan_Moto I'm not sure whether to ride on it and hope it moulds more. at the moment the cover pops up in lowest bit of the seat (hope that makes sense) I did neglect to use the 2 straps that came with it, which I noticed you used in the central bit, perpendicular to the ones that are sewn in.

These things work well.

I've had a Kontour seat on two of my bikes over a 7 year period and bird sh!t has NEVER been an issue. It would not even be on my list of things to worry about. This material works like a charm as it claims.

I'd like to suggest that much of the problems described are issue with the seat designs themselves. Why is it that the vast majority of bikes (usually Japanese) have seat tilted forward - in such a way that drives you or causes you to slide forward into the gas tank. I've had a lot of bikes, most of the seats were horrid. It wasn't until I discovered that modifying or replacing the seat with something more flat, level and wide cured my butt blues.
