ok for longest time now I have been wondering what is the deal with all these chrushed velvet seats? my guess is that most of you guys run & ride out in the extreme heat so I would assume that velvet is cool on the azz? is that the reason? or is it more for bling?/

not makin fun of, just really curious? hell I might have to get me one too

Crushed velvet seats were cool in cars back in the 70s, maybe it is making a comeback. I think that the guys on those fast azz banshees use it to cover up the skid marks left when they take off. lol

they are for looks and i have found them to be cooler but don`t let you slide on launch as much as the stock style will, the seat is a often over looked area of tuning to riders leg length, mine are short and a lower cut seat puts me closer to shifter and lowers my weight on frame some, with the lower seat or cut as some call it, it also lets the rider move to rear easier and then slide back forward after pass

If it will keep you from sliding...I am all for it!
