Leather care

I used to take mine to bikers paradise
http://www.bikersparadise.co.uk
They give them a good clean and treatment and any repairs that need doing
Might be worth a call to see what they use

I use this by Nikwax:-

http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Nikwax-Leathe ... 3aa0f61707

Non-aerosol spray. Waterproofs, conditions and restores suppleness to smooth leather. Adds water repellency and revives breathability whilst conditioning the leather.

I was discussing this earlier with Marty (AP) and we discovered that the grease from Big Macs waterproofs and dresses the leather beautifully.
And it's free, with every meal.
It's not falling off, it's an upgrade opportunity.
