The Complete Guide to Customising Your 50cc Bike Seat
Reupholstering the seat is one of the most popular and high-impact mods you can do to your 50cc bike. Whether you ride a Derbi Senda, Yamaha DT 50, Beta RR 50, Rieju MRT or KTM SX 50, a custom seat cover instantly transforms the look of your machine. At BikeSellier, we specialise in handcrafting made-to-measure seat covers for every 50cc bike on the market. And if you're after the ultimate in customisation, give our 3D Configurator for 50cc Bike Seat Covers a go.
Why Customise Your 50cc Seat?
A Unique Style That's All You
Your 50cc is a reflection of who you are. With a custom seat cover, you build a one-off design that nobody else will have. Pick your colours, your materials and your lettering for a result that's 100% you.
Better Comfort
The materials you choose have a direct effect on how comfortable the ride feels. Anti-slip grip keeps you planted through the corners, while alcantara gives you a soft, pleasant feel under you. Our high-density foams hug the shape of your original seat perfectly.
Long-Lasting Protection
The original seat wears out over time: UV fading, tears, loss of grip. A BikeSellier cover protects your seat while giving it a new lease of life, with UV-treated, water-resistant materials.
The Materials Available at BikeSellier
High-Density Textured Synthetic Leather
Chosen for its outstanding durability, our textured synthetic leather comes in over 20 colours. Its smooth surface lets you move around easily on the seat while standing up to everyday abrasion. Ideal for a clean look and a wide choice of colours.
Premium Alcantara
A top-shelf material with a velvety feel, used in sports cars and race bikes. It gives you superior natural grip and a refined look. A favourite for the main seating areas.
Anti-Slip Grip
A must for sporty riders and anyone into wheelies. Its special texture delivers maximum hold even in extreme situations. Pairs perfectly with textured synthetic leather or alcantara.
The BikeSellier 3D Configurator
Step 1: Select Your Model
Pick your 50cc bike model from our catalogue. We've got specific patterns for every model: Derbi Senda DRD, Yamaha DT 50, Beta RR 50, Rieju MRT, KTM SX 50, Sherco, Fantic, Honda CRF and plenty more. The configurator automatically loads the matching 3D pattern.
Step 2: Choose Your Colours and Materials
Zone by zone, pick your colours and materials. Each panel can have a different material: grip on top for hold, textured synthetic leather on the sides for the look, a touch of alcantara up front. The 3D preview updates instantly.
Step 3: Add Your Personal Touches
Add your name, race number, team logo or custom text. Choose the font, colour and placement. Go for raised embroidery for a premium finish.
Step 4: Confirm and Order
Confirm your setup and place your order. Our workshop gets your design straight away and starts production within 5 to 10 working days.
Handcrafted Production
Precision Cutting
The materials are cut to your model's specific pattern with millimetre precision for a perfect fit.
Assembly and Stitching
The pieces are assembled and sewn with high-strength marine thread. The seams are done on an industrial machine, the finishing checked by hand. The embroidery is run on a digital machine for a clean, precise result.
Quality Control
Every cover goes through a rigorous quality check: seam alignment, embroidery quality, colour accuracy, fit on the template.
Fitting Your Cover
What You'll Need
First up, your BikeSellier seat cover.
Next, a manual staple gun (8-10mm staples).
Then a flat-head screwdriver or staple remover.
And a hairdryer (optional).
Fitting Steps
1. Remove the old cover: Take off your seat, flip it over and pull out the staples with a flat-head screwdriver.
2. Position the new cover: Lay your cover over the foam, making sure the design is well centred. Fix the front with 2-3 temporary staples.
3. Stretch and staple: Pulling firmly, staple alternating front/back and left/right for even tension.
4. Finish off: Check the result, adjust if needed, refit the seat.
Care and Lifespan
With minimal care, your cover will keep its as-new look for years. Clean it with a damp cloth and mild soap. For textured synthetic leather, a care product will keep the shine and suppleness going. Steer clear of harsh solvents.
