    Default Scuff marks on the seat

    Does anyone have any recommendations on how to remove the boot scuff marks from the vinyl seat ?

    I know the way to prevent them is to NOT be a clod getting on and off the bike.
    If it ain't broke, don't break it.

    Try a good brand vinyl conditioner like Mothers or Maguires.

    Cover it with your butt (aka more ryding) and maybe it will get polished off with your pants.

    I usually can just wash or wipe it off. Windex Multi-Purpose with Vinegar is my standard quick cleaner.

    That rubbery material on the stock seat accentuates any kind of scuffing. I finally gave up and bought the comfort seat. The finish of the vinyl is much more forgiving.

    Comfort seat great for comfort...as far as marking up, I'm sure I'll do that soon enough!
