Frozen Seat Indentation

[DIwarrior]

Last night while up riding in Canada, the temp dropped to around -20F. We were at the restaurant for a couple of hours, and then rode up to our to our rooms. This morning the seat looked like it had a saddle where I sat. After riding about 165 miles today, the sides of the seat are still crinkled and you can feel the indentation, although it appears most of the "saddle" worked itself out. What do you think, permanent or possibly a day in the sun will warm the rest out? 1,400 miles on the Warrior and lovin it more every mile!

My '03 is good at doing that but they're supposed to have had it fixed in '04.

What happens is the foam gets saturated and when it's cold enough freezes as you describe. It tends to return back to normal after it warms up but will do it again when it gets cold and you ride long enough.

Thanks SledderSteve, I thought I remembered reading something about this some time ago. The main reason I asked is none of the other sleds in our group had this happen. (1 Pol, 1 Doo and 2 Vipers)
