Help me out here guys. I just contracted with RICK MAYER to rebuild my R3T seat. He has the option of using either a premiun vinyl or leather. I chose the leather but I am having second thoughts. Im concerned about the maintainance of the leather and also about the seat getting wet. They sell a waterproof cover for the leather seat but Im worried that Ill let the bike sit out somewhere and it will get rained on unexpectantly and then Im sunk. I also wonder if I leave the cover on while Im away from the bike that someone will swipe it. Is the leather that much more comfortable while riding that it is worth the extra $100. Also there is a heated seat option that I am considering. I just question how heating my butt is going to help the areas that actually get cold. Ive never had a cold butt while riding. Its the fingers, toes, acd chest that get cold. Does the heated seat help these areas or is it just another bells and whistle thing that really has no value.
