I have never owned a leather seat and recently purchased a leather front seat for my 09 FJR. It has some nice decorative stitching, looks nice and it is lowered and tapered so I can reach the ground better. My question for all those who ride on leather seats. Is riding or parking in the rain all that much of an issue? Does the seat get saturated and then soak you through your riding pants? Is it worth getting a waterproof cover, and would you keep the cover on while riding in the rain or only when the bike is parked in the rain. Maybe some of you guys in the Pacific Northwest can chime in with some personal experience. I understand you get a little rain out that way on occasion.
Thanks for any input.
