What's a cheap fix for slippery seat?

[TheGDog]

I plan on ordering a gripper seat cover... but until I get one... does anyone have any Ghetto quick-fix they use to help make their stock seat cover more grippy?

I've heard of people pooring Cola over the seat and letting it dry to help provide some stickyness.

I was curious if there were better alternative than that?

P.S. - Please also recommend to me the best way or Internet site from which to order the proper model of gripper seat cover I will need for my '96 KX500.

Stick a maxi pad on it,not only does the adhesive strip provide traction but the pad helps to soak up ass sweat.

Try GUTS Racing. They will make the cover in just about any color/gripper combo you want. I use them on all my bikes.

I thank you guys for the tips on which companies products to check out.  Hopefully... after I get finished with the Magic Man that does my taxes... and set aside the refund amount I need for next years property taxes... if there's enough leftover... hopefully I can pick-up a few items for the bike I need.

But on a serious note.... in the meantime... does anybody know of any quick fix?  How about a little Spray-On adhesive applied to the seat and let to dry?

I cleaned it recently with Protect-All.  I knew it would make it slippery-er... but it's got a small tear at the rear of it and I didn't want the material to prematurely dry-out and start cracking/tearing more until I could pickup a gripper cover, so I bit-the-bullet and went ahead anyway.

P.S. that GUTS racing sounds like the ticket then... I'd really like to keep the seat the cool green that it already is.  Black seats heat-up quick out in the desert.
