Anyone else find the seat on the HP4 slippy? Under heavy braking I leave two spherical imprints on my tank......anyone tried any grippy seat covers or other things?

Yeah it was the first thing I noticed, I had the same on my Fireblade, I got a leather zero gravity seat for that and it was great. But they don't do them for the Beemer. It might be worth having the seat covered in leather.
No, not really. It's needs to have some slip qualities to be able to move across the seat, being a sports bike 'n all.

Grip the tank with your knees properly? If the tank is too slippy, use stomp grips or techspec tank pads to give you better grip. Pretty sure you'd need a velcro seat to stop you slipping forward if you're not using your legs properly - and that'd just mean your leathers would mash the old plums

No i havn't to be honest, just got the standard seat on my HP4 and its fine for me. I find it really comfortable and it allows me to move around on the bike when i need to.
