Are these any good before I go looking for a seat trimmer to get the original recovered? My occasional pillion has asked me to try and get it a bit more grippy. Thanks in advance for anyone’s feedback or suggestions of trimmers near Wigan
Looks pretty good but essentially the same as this stuff... https://www.amazon.co.uk/Scratch-Mo...0&sprefix=motorcycle+anti+sli,aps,139&sr=8-37 You could get some of that and wrap the seat in it and have plenty left when it wears out. I use it to stop luggage sliding on the passenger seat which makes it easier to lash down. That said the tribo seat isn't that expensive.

That looks like the one I've taken off the sp! If it is the same company then I can give them a big thumbs up too. Lots more plusher than the comfort seat and absolutely no sliding on the surface. A great seat
Have the Triboseat on the K13s.Great job.Stops the wife sliding under heavy braking and acceleration.Wouldn't take a pillion out without it now.Just make sure you fit it properly for it to be effective.
Well I ordered one off eBay yesterday afternoon and it arrived this morning. Delivery was standard cost of £2 and was not expected to arrive until 18th June. Fitted on the seat and looks/feels the part.
Just to follow up - this got its first run out today and my pillion passenger was very happy not to be sliding about as had been the case previously. So its thumbs up for this as a cheap fix for anyone in similar circumstances. EDIT - Photos added. As well as the perimeter drawstring there’s also a mid point Velcro strap to keep things in place on the underside. I figure it doesn’t cover the complete cushion so the rider doesn’t snag on the front pad (as they would if it had the mesh across it IMO).
