How frequently to condition motorcycle leather How much care does motorcycle leather need? If you ride your motorcycle a lot in hot sunny or rainy conditions frequently, your leather will need conditioning several times during the ridding season. If any of your leather motorcycle accessories feel dry, it's time to condition them. Rain dries out leather quickly. When rain evaporates from leather, it pulls moisture away from the skin. We recommend conditioning your leather once it dries out.
We recommend that you condition your leather accessories with Lexol-type leather conditioner.
How to keep motorcycle leather from fading All leather is subject to fading from the sun's ultraviolet (UV) rays. We recommend using: 303 Aerospace Protectant to save your leather from fading. With regular use, this leather conditioning product prevents fading up to 100%. In addition, it conditions your leather apparel and accessories. An effective sun-screen will ensure that your leather accessories will look better and last longer.
How to keep your motorcycle leather dry Leather motorcycle apparel and accessory need a water repellent. A spray water repellent is safe to use on leather. However, a water repellent will not save your leather accessories from heavy rain; eventually water will soak into the leather.
