So I have my sheepskin

[chipsonfriday]

Saved when my Missus upgraded one of her rugs.

So how do I fit it to my bike saddle? I could use a luggage strap, or Velcro but what do you guys use?

Serious question - but I look forward to the usual diverse answers...

18" Rok Strap... fits perfectly... over the top and hooks under the seat edges

I used to use a spare cargo net.

 

[(RIP) Miff]

I bought some 2 inch wide elastic. Then sewed a loop of it onto the 'skin front to back, and another from one side to the other.

This fits nicely over the underside of the seat and is out of sight too

If you want a piccy, just ask.

I used mini bungee straps last year.

Take no notice they are great.

They keep your ass cool in summer, warm in winter and offer a comfortable ride without the expense of a corbin etc. and when it rains you just pat the seat and the rain bounces off.

Buy a cheap as chips Putnams blow up seat and you have a ready made Air hawk for the fraction of the price and it's hidden from view. Got mine second hand (or second ass) from here, it's one of these:

Fits the Gs 1200 spot on.

sew or glue 2 loops of elastic onto the sheep skin fit and forget

I normally sit on it

Exactly as the man says
I think they are great for owt over 150 mile or when its hot an sunny
Haberdasheries is where I got mine
Make it secure my mate lost his on a motorway when he stood up to have a stretch
Sheepy was off a car boot for a quid

 

[Giles]

I don't have one because my arse isn't made out of puppy dogs, kittens and buttercup petals.

 

[MickDB1]

Bet Giles has some sheepskin lined pants though

Now theres an idea

Latex actually ....

 

[crumbles]

Why have latex when you can catch the real thing

 

[drinkingparrot]

You could stuff it down your trousers, make a pair of undies out of it or better still velcrow it to your arse

 

[chipsonfriday]

Thanks guys. As expected a load of different ways to skin the proverbial cat...

So I guess I will try a couple of your suggestions and see what best suits...
