PRODUCT REVIEW: SEAT CONCEPTS SUPER GRIP SEAT COVER
review by Kurt Lucas

I have used Seat Concepts the last few years and they have great products; they are very durable, and the ribbed seat covers really prevent unwanted sliding on the seat. When I picked up my new Husqvarna FC 350 from Sarasota Powersports the first thing I did was call Randy Faul and order a Seat Concepts seat cover. Randy was nice enough to install the cover for me and when I went and picked it up, I noticed this particular cover had rubber sides with raised hexagons. Randy told me this cover provided maximum grip and he asked me to give it a try and provide a review on the product. I first tested the cover out at the world famous Croom Motorcycle Area and I could instantly feel the insides of me knee catching the rubber sides, preventing me from sliding back. I was instantly impressed with how much grip this product provided. The next time I rode was at the Perry Mountain 24 Hour Challenge in Alabama. The fast, choppy hills were the perfect test for a gripper seat. Again, I was thoroughly impressed with how well this seat cover kept my butt on the seat, even after being up for over 24 hours barely holding onto the bike as the race came to an end.
The raised ribs on the top of the seat provide traction while also allowing the rider to slide up and down the seat at their desire. The ribs are sewn on and are very durable, I had my previous seat cover for over two years with no issues. The rubber sides only add to the durability while also providing ultimate traction. The SuperGrip Rubber knee panel offers superior grip even in wet, muddy or slippery conditions, and resists wear from knee braces better than any seat cover on the market. I give this product a 10 out of 10.
If you’re interested in learning more about this product be sure to look for Randy Faul at the races, he usually has a few seat covers to look at and would be more than happy to talk to you about the benefits of a Seat Concepts seat.
