"Thanks again for the excellent support you've provided. It's SO refreshing to know that there are still some businesses that truly care about their customers AFTER the sale.

"Thank you for making this product! My husband (Caleb) hasn’t been riding his motorcycle to and from the office because of burning his butt so badly. I’m getting this as a surprise for him so can ride his motorcycle again and be the cool platoon leader again. Y’all are the best!"

"I just got the shade and I LOVE IT!!! YOU did good! The chrome really stands out and you're right - it matches the bike beautifully! I can't thank you enough for redoing the design! It's exactly as I imagined - Better actually! You know you've got a huge fan in Fresno! I'll be sure to keep spreading the word - Thanks again!!" -

I've been riding a motorcycle for 20 years and I don't know how I didn't know about Cycle Shades before, but I'm so glad that a member introduced me, and the entire club, to what will be a heavily used item on hot and wet riding days. I HIGHLY recommend Cycle Shades as the place to get your shade. If you're a member of a motorcycle club, do what we did. Have your logo printed on it! I have no doubt that your experience will be every bit as pleasant and professional as mine!"

FrequentlyAsked Questions (FAQs)
What is the average life of a cycle shade?
Our motorcycle seat covers last on average 7 years. The black color does fade with regular use to a dark grey.
How easy is it - really?
Simple answer is easier than you would believe! You don’t have time to waste trying to install your Cycle Shade seat cover, so we made sure that it was quick and easy to install.
Always install from the left side of the motorcycle. Place shade face-up with the logo at the back of the seat. Using bungees and/or elastic, attach:
Front of shade to grips and/or levers.
Back of shade to taillights and/or protruding objects.
Sides of shade to the shifter, brake pedal, or body side molding,
2 “S” hooks are included if the attachment is desired on a part of the bike that cannot have bungees and/or elastic slipped onto.
Do these cover fits trikes?
Yes. Our seat covers easily fit trikes. For trunk covers, you will want to select our CS3 cover.
Can I use these on my other motorsport toys?
Yup. These covers kick butt keeping the sun off of jet ski seats and 4-wheelers. You may even want one to keep the snow off your snow mobile seat.
Here are some guideline to help you get the right fit for your bike.
If you ride your bike with a trunk you will need the CS-3 (large) seat shade.
If you ride without a trunk you need a CS-1 (standard) seat shade.
If your bike has been customized and the tail lights are not in the stock position you need 2 extensions.
For bikes with a windshield and a full fairing you need a Full Face Gauge Cover
The Small Gauge Cover fits bikes with windshields 3-12 inches tall and no fairing.
The Large Gauge Cover fits bikes with windshields 13-24 inches tall and no fairing.
If you have ape bars you need 2 extensions so the seat shade will drop down to the correct position.
