I took my 2012 Rider's Seat to the Cool Covers HQ a couple of weeks ago.
They had a Cover available previously, but it was designed around the Small Tank Seat design, so didn't quite work properly with the later type.
The Central Strap fouled on the locating Lug of the Seat.

They've redesigned it now, with twin Straps, fits all models.

I went to their site. Terrible. No photos of the items for Moto Guzzi. In fact, no real photos at all. I sent them a message about it.

What kind of business sells something, and doesn't prominently display it in sharp, high-resolution photos for customers to see?


On another note, have you logged saddle time with it and what is your opinion? Is it comfortable and what does it do for you?
 
They've only just updated the design, so I'd expect photos to be available in the site soon enough.

To be fair, it looks pretty much the same on any Bike, it's for functionality, not for 'show'. ;)

This is the one on mine.

I now have their Pillion cover fitted as well, my youngest Daughter (most regular Pillion Passenger) loves it.

It's a strong Webbing/Mesh material that they have made specially.
You can get cheap chinese knock-offs, but the material on them is thinner and weaker.

It supports your A**e nicely, conforms to your shape, and stops you sliding around.
Improves the comfort of the standard Seat.
Cool in Summer, and insulates you from a freezing Seat in Winter.
Rain just runs through it, so you're not sitting with a pool of Water built up in front of your Crotch.

Wouldn't like to ride without one now, I've had mine on for a couple of years, and it's not squished down one little bit, keeps it's 'springiness' very well.

I know of one Stelvio owner on another Forum that's put over 60,000 miles on his Cool Cover, and it's kept it's thickness completely.

Yet to hear of any negatives from any users.
 
I recently bought one of these Cool Covers mostly due to John's recommendation/commentary.
I've not put a bunch of miles on it yet, but initially I'm pretty tickled with it.
It seems like a well made product that's had some thought put into it. The reworked twin strap design works well.
I'm actually using a thin Airhawk pad under the seat cover and it all makes for a tidy, well contained, and comfy package.

EDIT: Friday, 07/15/2022

So I've put about 400 more miles on the Stelvio seat since my last post on Sunday.
I'm really enjoying the Cool Cover with the minimally inflated AirHawk under it. I'm going to up the inflation of the AH pad a little more and give that a try. The cover does a nice job of containing the pad and keeping it all firm and not squirming around.

I've had a riding friend from SC visiting recently. Yesterday we took out my Stelvio and my K12GT and left his GSA in the garage. He had never ridden either of these bikes. I think that he really liked that Stelvio set up pretty well.
