    I have had mine now for 6 weeks and 1600 miles and I have been having good luck keeping mine clean. when it has got a little dirty I have cleaned it with windex and it cleaned it up fine. I ride in leathers so don't know if that is helping. In my cars blue jeans stain the leather seats and nothing will take that off as far as I can see. I bought the black seat and have it on hand, but so far having good luck with the yellow one.

    I've just used soap and water so far...so good. However I do see the black riders saddle in my future.

    Thx for the replies. Have you noticed, if you wipe it off w/white paper towel the yellow comes off on the towel...

    3 months and 4200 miles later....it is holding up better than I expected. Water with soap and/or Simple Green on tougher marks.
