Anyone else have this problem?? It's not like I weigh a ton or anything....and my feet just reach the pegs, so I don't think it's the way I sit. May have to get it re-glued. Not sure. Never had to do a seat repair before. :(







BUMMER...................... just makes it look phugly....:down:

You can try using a hair drier to heat that area and try and smooth it out.

Use an oven mitt for smoothing the warmed material.

Is your bike still under warranty? I had a similar issue with my Corvette and the dealership fixed it under my warranty.

Send it to Roger/beeza or Seatmaker(sorry dont know his actually name) and get him to make you a custom seat. They do great work.

A heat gun works pretty good, just dont get it too hot and do not use bare hands to smooth (as stated above)

Yea I have the same problem on my 05, old style seat. The wrinkles are smaller and more of them. I am assuming the hair dryer will loosen the glue underneat and then you can smooth it out?

I like the hair dryer idea for applying some heat and then trying to smooth out the material. Gonna try that first and see how that works.
Hey V...:roll: Your right.... I need to tone that down....:lol:
