ATV Seating Taking a Beating? Check This Out.

We all deal with it, but for some reason, it almost feels like a rite of passage to just “grin and bear it” when it comes to your stock ATV seat getting its rear kicked by the outside world. Ever exposed and often neglected, the seat deserves just as much TLC as the rest of your quad, which is exactly our purpose today: spreading the good news of ATV seat protection accessories. Whether you’re dealing with mud, incidental nicks and scratches, or more serious damage from debris, there’s always a way to prevent any further issues with a high-quality ATV seat cover.

Slip-On Covers for the Win

If you’re just looking for a simple, tool-free way to get some much-needed protection for your ATV seat, then let us share our love of slip-on ATV seat covers with you for a moment. Exhibit A is the Pursuit Camo Slip-On Seat Cover by Kolpin Powersports, which just pops right over your existing seat in about two minutes, and boom: you’re (literally) covered. We’re talking complete protection from UV exposure, all kinds of moisture, and just plain-old abuse. Because, and this is the important part, you just want to use your ATV without constantly worrying about stuff like seat damage.

Heated Seat Cushions to Keep You Toasty

Every ATV rider who has put in their time knows darn well that the best quad accessories make as much use as possible out of every single inch of that already limited surface area. This is exactly the case with heated ATV seat cushions like this Heated Seat Cushion by Kemimoto, which gives you non-gimmicky two-in-one functionality: it keeps your seat shielded from damage while keeping your seat and the rest of your body pleasantly warm during those cold-weather jaunts. This is the difference between true ingenuity and the so-so alternatives.

Heavy-Duty Waterproof Covers When You Need Top Protection

If your ATV lives outside or gets used in hardcore conditions, a basic cover is simply not going to cut it. The ATV Waterproof Seat Cover 1680D Oxford Cloth by Kemimoto is a perfect example of features you should look for. It’s made from extra-heavy-duty material that bats away water, UV exposure and everything else with ease. Whichever ATV seat cover you’ve got your eye on, if you’re in the heavy-duty arena, keep an eye out for waterproof coating that keeps moisture out completely, which means no more sitting down on a soggy seat after a rainstorm. Elastic edges and straps don’t hurt either.

A Little Protection Goes a Long Way

To be frank for a moment, getting a new ATV seat isn't cheap, and dealing with a cracked one for multiple seasons is no fun. Making a modest investment up front on a high-quality cover saves you much more hassle in the long run. Whether you’ve got your eyes on a slip-on, heated option for cold weather, or a heavy-duty waterproof shield, your seat and your backside will thank you!
