Whatsup guys, title pretty much asks my question but what is the best seat covers and wrinkle-less after puting it on? I just put on my NStyle seat cover and it looks like sh*t. No matter how tight I pulled or anything the stupid pos had millions of wrinkles and loose spots on top. Im looking for a Duncan Racing style seat cover like I had. with the lip that goes completely around the bottom. Any other brands have the lip completely around the bottom?

We have a DFR seat cover on our other 450 and it's nice fit perfect and no wrinkles at all.

Yes Dirt Fiend Racing that cover is super nice, i believe mine was $95 bucks plus shipping and that was picking my own colors, they are really nice covers and come with an 1/8 in extra pad under them with the graphic sewn into the top, if i can get into my trailer 2nite i will snap a pic and post it.

Quadtech is where it's at...

as a note, I always leave the stock seat cover on and then put the new one over it. Seems to keep it tighter and make it a little more plush.

Is this the QT seat yall are talkin about? If so i like it and if i can get the wife to let me spend that I am going to get it. I got pretty mad about the Nstyle seat cover so i slammed my seat on the work bench and cracked the whole bottom. Still one piece but shell have to agree about getting me a whole new seat. (She thinks it broke riding in the past) We'll see but i do like it and it does look really comfortable.

The hump seat is an all new seat, but you can get just regular seat covers from quadtech, its what I use.

well like i said, i need a whole new seat anyway, the whole platic part of seat is cracked from side to side. So i might as well just pick up the $305 entire seat. Now i just need the money. Im finally completely broke.

yeah the quadtech seats are top notch, I love all of their products, with the exception of carbon fiber hoods, they're just for looks and dont hold up well. Their seats are awesome though.

Completely broke now? What took you so long? I've been this way for some time now hahaha

You can buy the cover/foam or you can get the pan installed with the cover/foam but it's kinda pricey almost better finding a junk seat on ebay with a good pan, the cover/foam is $170 and complete seat is $305.

what took me so long? I had $27,000.00 from the army for my medical discharge. Yeah instead of buying a house i rebuilt my fourhweeler and bought my wife a fourwheeler. If i could sell one of my cars id be in great shape.

I feel the same way about the CF hoods. I had one then switched to plastic. It will flex so much more than the CF, and it's not as brittle.

Check these forums even!! i bought my quad-tech cover off of this site for only $65.00.....and it was basically brand new! but quad-tech is the best i think!

I wish they would make them race quality Carbon Fiber. If you take a look at the Rolex 24 hour cars their carbon fiber iscompletely different than most companies mass produce. This stuff is so storng. It can take bangs from cars going 190MPH and its still it 1 piece. Maier carbon fiber hoods are nice cause their plastic

I dont think the hood's are bad it's just that they are cheap on material and charge a fortune for them, i will not buy another one again from them my next one will be a Gen-X hood

In my opinion GUTS racing makes the best seat covers out there. I had one on my 250R and then my 450R and now one will be on my LTR as soon as I order it. I even have one on my stepsons 300EX. They fit great and look good and have enough gripper to keep you from sliding around but not so much its pulling your pants off.


here is a link to there website: http://www.gutsracing.com/pages/seatcvrpg.html

They don't have any quads listed in there website but they do make them.

any of you guys know if they still make a seat cover with a humongous confederate flag on it, I sold my 250r like 7 years ago when they came, it would look tight on my 450 :D

I think im gonna stick with the QT. I really like the look and it looks really comfortable. For 300 it better be damn comfy. And yes they still make them my cuz had one on his 400EX till it got stolen. Just tough to find. Ill ask him where he got it and let you know.
