I got some leather pants from Cycle Gear so at this point I'm pretty well protected (not to mention good looking! ;) )but... Now I'm sliding all over the seat! I'm really beginning to feel uncomfortable with this. Any suggestions?

Saddle Soap or use a mild hand soap with a damp cloth and wipe the areas that are slick.

I have trouble keeping them a slick as when they are new. Can't help you with how to make them stick.

might just need to be worn for a while. it might have some kind of protective coating on the leather. maybe try a leather cleaner and conditioner on it. do not use armor all or anything like that. unless you want to slide right off the bike and down the road. i would go to a leather care place and get some stuff from them. thats what ive done with mine

I wish I could keep my track leathers slick, makes it easier to get fron one side of the seat to the other :)

For some slickness.. put some old english on them. lol.. and do NOT put it on wood floor and walk on it with socks on your feet. My younger brother "cleaned" the floor.. and i bit it. lol.. was a pucker factor.
