So I pulled the leather off the 906's seat today with the intention of recovering it and discovered mold. Is there a way of getting ride of the mold in the foam?

perhaps the almighty bleach shall deliver us from moldy foam.

Aha! Baptize it in the bleach! A fellow bay area lad, hope to see you on the road.

I hope to meet you soon! But for now, I'm repairing my 750 Paso after a recent fuel fire: a bit melty.

The mold is from the leather, not from the foam. Wash the foam, then treat the leather. Keep it dry is the key.

Cheers,

Thanks for the information guys. Sorry to hear about your bike Randy, as soon as you get her back on the road lets ride! (Check out Oyster run in the events section, no set date). Oh and thanks for the shop details.

Kewl!

If you haven't put the seat cover back on the base yet, there is one trick you can do keep it happier for longer. Stop by a quilting store, fabric store, or upholstery store and pick up some batting. Its a non woven mat of poly that is commonly wrapped around foam before the fabric cover is applied. It will smooth out the contours, and let a bit of air under the leather to keep it from getting moldy.

Cheers,

All done! Thanks for the help and great advise guys.
