890 adventure - protection for pillion saddle

[jaca2865]

Hi guys

Recently bought an 890 adventure which I’m liking a lot

However, since having both hips replaced my ability to get my leg over without scuffing rear saddle is a pain and I’m trying to work out how best to avoid the scuffing by letting my footwear slide across the saddle cover.

I don’t carry pillions these days so it’s not a problem to fit some kind of protection eg flexy plastic or similar over the saddle. I don’t want to remove the saddle.

Any hints guys? Thinking of thick, plyable plastic sheet or similar??

Thanks in advance

Jim

Would just fit a Cool Cover or rather a cheaper version off Ebay/Aliepress etc

Cheers Paul. I’ll take a look.

I’ve been told to try the standing on side stand lever technique.
