Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure a professional installation, start by removing the motorcycle seat from the chassis. Use a flat-head screwdriver or staple remover to pull the old staples from the base of the seat, removing the stock cover entirely. Carefully position the Selle Dalla Valle cover over the seat foam, ensuring the alignment marks match the seat's contours. It is recommended to use a high-powered staple gun to secure the cover to the plastic seat base, starting from the center and working your way toward the edges, applying consistent tension to avoid bunching or wrinkles. After installation, care is simple: wipe down the cover after rides with a mild soap and water solution, avoiding harsh degreasers that could degrade the specialized grip coating. Periodically check the staples around the base to ensure they remain flush with the plastic.
