Anyone out there know which companies seat covers for evo bikes fit best?
I've fitted a dozen or so seat covers lately
And to be honest they are shit!
Technosol seen to have made all there cr
Seat covers for all 80's cr's to fit the extra high seat foam only.
As it is impossible to fit the sides in line with
The stitching
The only way you can get the cover tight is to
Stretch the f**k out of the cover and pull the overlapping foam tight against the front sides of the seat, leaving a horrible gap
Between the tank and seat!
Any advice on a decent fitting cover for 80's and 90's cr's would be greatly appreciated
Pic shows seat cover has lost its seam edge due to having to be pulled so tight

I just got seat covers from www.lr-designs.co.uk

They are great seat covers...this one was for a 2002 CR 250 now a CR 500 AF

Bet they can do your bike.... I had an upholstery specialist install mineSillyWhistling

There is a guy in Thailand that makes a cover for your bike. If he doesnt have it , send him your old cover and he will make a new one for free. I just got one for my KX and it couldnt fit better. His name is TC. I think his Email is Pitreplica2@gmail.com. Cheap too. Its expensive to ship a seat there and back (like 110.00) but he will put it on for you too

Some covers just suck. I lay mine out in the sun and let them get nice and warm before stretching them in place.

You can't go wrong with www.evo-mx.com

Also, I like to throw seat covers in the dryer for a few minutes before I install them.

Ditto on pit replica, they even have an exact match for my 80's Honda street bike!
