crotch-coolers-heat-shields

These Harley-Davidson heat shields are made of beautiful 10-12 oz buffed bridle leather.  Next they get a ply of 2-3 oz split leather (Suede) on the bottom, so nothing can scratch your motorcycle. Both layers are glued together with industrial cement and stitched around the edges. This is standard and we and we call this “single ply”.

We also offer “double ply” Harley-Davidson heat shields that get a third smaller layer stitched on top for a 3-dimensional look. We do not recommend choice if it is already hard for you to get your seat on.

The care for your leather is very important as it can curl when it dries out. Treat is like your best pair or shoes with a leather conditioner that contains beeswax like “Aussie” or “Skidmore” from Fiebing. The beeswax will repel water and protect from the sun rays. Keep a close eye on the leather and give it the TLC that it needs according to the climate you live in.

Please post your installed heat shield on our Facebook page. We love to see your bikes.
