I agree 100%! Especially after spending a 12 hour day riding on a wet Ultimate seat.

The claim is that they "breathe" better without a plastic lining. Then they tell you to put something on the seat it to seal the water out. If the sealing process works and the seat is now impermeable to water, doesn't that make it pretty similar to a plastic lining??

I wanted to add a plastic lining to my Mustang seat. Unfortunately, they glued the driver's portion to the foam. Next time I feel like getting in there, I'll cut the seat from the foam and add the plastic. My Mustang seat foam gets wet when just washing the bike.

I feel better now ...
