My bike is exposed to the sun on the balcony where I keep it. This is probably not so great for the leather saddle, so I improvised a sun cover from some wire and folio. This highly advanced design doesn't trap heat underneath.

The reason I suggested is because my parents had an old Monte Carlo with leather seats that would get deadly hot during the summer and we would lay towels across them when not driving to prevent burns when wearing shorts.
