cover advice

Post by MattnLA »

hi again,

My beloved Frau has always been garage kept. I am heading to north Georgia for the summer (will cover that in another post) and am bringing my bike...totally psyched to ride all those amazing roads out there.

Anyway,, I have no place to keep her sheltered, so I need to buy a cover.

Any recommendations on brands and sizes?

Thanks

Matt

Three years ago I bought the Nelson Rigg Defender 2000, and it's still in excellent shape. Offers great protection.
XL size covers the bike completely with tall windshield and sidebags.

Thanks Roy,

Considering you are way up there in the great white north, I figure my bike should be safe for just 2 months in a Georgia summer.

Hehehe.. I've used a loosie bike cover like that to hide from the rain on the parked bike and once down at the Baja 1000 - hid from 110 degrees in the desert on the ground

There was one tree within sight and I wouldn't go in that shade cause I thought the snakes had first dibs... :D
