Hi Folks. I'd like to upgrade the seat on my Speedmaster to a Corbin Classic Solo with Pillion. I've never owned a leather seat on a motorcycle before.

I'm a little concerned about having leather as I ride quite a bit, and my bike is outside during the day. My concern is with rain. I ride in the rain (sometimes not voluntarily!), and sometimes it rains on the bike while at work. I've heard of rain hoods that you could put on, but I don't think that's for riding as it could make you slip.

Are my concerns warranted, or should I go with vinyl?

Thanks,
H.
