Reviews & Tips
1. Waterproof 100% Polyurethane silver lining keeps rain from penetrating and reaching the kart, covering both dusty paddock conditions and wet race days
2. Structured shape with elasticated lower edge provides a universal fit across different kart classes without needing class-specific covers
3. Supplied with an Alpinestars-branded storage bag, making the cover practical to store and transport without it taking up unnecessary space in the van or trailer
1. At £99.99 this is priced at the premium end of the kart cover market, which may feel high for what is fundamentally a protective cover
2. Universal fitment through the elasticated edge works across most kart classes but may not provide as snug a fit on unusual or non-standard kart configurations
3. The structured shape optimised for kart coverage means this won’t double as a general equipment cover
Every kart that turns up to a race weekend without a cover is a kart that arrives with accumulated dust, possibly damp from overnight rain, and without the paddock presentation that a serious competitor works to project. The Alpinestars Kart Cover solves all of that with a construction built to the same quality standards Alpinestars apply to their riding gear.
The outer shell is 100% Polyester, a durable, weather-resistant material that keeps the cover’s structure intact across the repeated fitting, removal, and folding of a race season. The inner lining is 100% Polyurethane with a silver finish: fully waterproof, keeping rain from penetrating to the kart surface regardless of how long the cover is in place. For race weekends where overnight rain is a feature of paddock life, a waterproof lining that genuinely keeps the kart dry beneath it is the difference between arriving on the grid with a prepared kart and arriving with one that needs wiping down.
The structured shape maintains the cover’s form across different kart configurations, and the elasticated lower edge provides a secure, close fit around the base of the kart that stays in place in the paddock wind. Universal fitment across different kart classes means one cover works across the range, which matters for teams that run multiple class combinations or for drivers who change class between seasons.
The Alpinestars-branded storage bag is a practical inclusion: a proper bag for the cover means it folds cleanly, stores compactly, and travels in the van or trailer without becoming a shapeless bundle that loses volume to no purpose.
The Kart Cover is for karting competitors and teams who take paddock preparation and kart protection seriously. It suits club racers through to regional and national-level competitors who travel to race weekends and want their kart protected from dust and rain in the paddock. Teams running multiple karts will find the universal fit and storage bag particularly practical for multi-kart setup management.
