I've often wondered about using a fleece on the seat. We see it fairly often over here, usually under the generous posterior of a cruiser rider. How does it fare in the wet??

Interesting...

@Nick... I used a small sheepskin last year and found it made a big difference, A popular farkle amongst adventure bike riders, a GS isn't complete without one   not sure if its just a bit more padding or if something to do with movement/lack of friction (or just magic ). I would recommend but don't get it wet - it doesn't like wet. I was lucky and saw no rain for 5 days! - in this area that IS magic 
Incidentally, its known as a 'numnah' by the equestrian types, who also use them on a saddle.
