It wouldn't have to cover the entire bike (as most motorcycle covers do) but just the important stuff like the seat and the tank. It also needs to be short enough that it doesn't hit the hot parts.

I'm surprised that I haven't seen anything like that for bikes. Full covers are a pain to get on and off.
Uhh... I've seen plenty of "half-covers" for bikes. The pretty much just cover the handlebars to the tail. Your gauges are still going to get wet and dirty, your turn signals and other black unpainted plastics are still going to fade and rot from UV, etc.

To protect your motorcycle against the elements I suggest:
  1. your own garage
  2. your own carport
  3. someone else's garage
  4. someone else's carport
  5. a deciduous tree w/o birds
  6. an umbrella
  7. a motorcycle cover
As I have never gotten past 3. above, I don't have any picture to provide.

I use a 1/2 cover at work. No melting problems as it doesn't touch the pipe....
The best thing though, is I can roll it up tight enough to fit in the rear seat cowl

For me, at home isn't a problem because my bike has a spot in the garage. I know other guys that get their bikes under cover one way or another including putting it in the living room.

A lot of stores around here allow bikers to park under the covered porches directly in front of the store, but unfortunately, many do not and I end up in the main parking lot with no shade. That's when a little mini-cover would be nice.

Any products good for refreshing plastic parts with UV damage (like the stock blinkers)? I found a rag with a light coat of WD40 is better than nothing, but think there has to be a better solution.....

Light UV damage? If you have a power drill, time, and some spare cash go to Autozone or Pepboys and get either a Meguiar's or Mother's Headlight Restoration kit. Follow instructions and your clear plastic will be in far better shape. WD-40 helps only very temporarily because the lubricate fills the UV damaged voids. When the WD-40 completely dries the UV damaged surface will still be in place and the clear will not be as transparent as the restoration kits would have achieved.

Note that the polishing the lens does remove some of the lens - not much - but some. Its useful only 3 or 4 times on the same lens.

There are some other products that can clean and return to excellent condition clear acrylic or poly-plastics but they cost more than a new lens cover would and the correct application is a matter of practice.

If you are going to try to remove UV damage from high gloss or very smooth plastic that is not clear, try Meguiar's #17 and Meguiar's #10 in that order. Each must be applied with a very clean cloth - I recommend 100% cotton - and each must be completely polished off. Elbow grease is required for #17 to do its job.

These will polish the UV damage away. If the original surface is matte do not use these - they will remove the damage AND remove the matte surface treatment of the plastic.

I was only talking about the black plastic housings, but that is good info to have, because the clear plastic inevitably will start to go at some point too.

Best motorcycle cover for 2010 250r

Hey guys. Looking for another cover for my bike since I lost mine and would like to see what the best cover out there would be for my bike for the best value. I am also thinking that I want something that will also be fine for the winter as well, and shouldn't be that much different since it will be in a shed during the winter. It will be outside though under the cover so I'd like a good cover for a good price.

I had the one from coverace and it was nice but started to fade and let small amounts of water through after a while and that kind of defeats the purpose of having a cover I'd say.

Do you guys have any recommendations for me? Can you please include links as well.

Thanks!

I bought the "Trackside" deluxe cover from cycle gear, it was like 70 bucks I think after the military discount and it has worked great. I park the car under a car cover but the sprinklers hit it from the side sometimes and the cover has worked perfectly at keeping the water away. It's pretty form fitting, has a hole to prevent condensation from forming, and it has a strap at the bottom to tighten it up and lock it shut with a cable lock. Good cover I'd say, a lil pricey, but it was the only one I could find that had what I needed...waterproof, tough, lockable, and form fitting

I use a nelson rigg deluxe all season cover. I like it. Feels pretty sturdy and fits nicely so that the wind wont blow it off. I think the size I have is a medium but i'm not 100% sure.

Storage covers

Been thinking of getting one for my bike while it was in storage, I don't know too much about them and unfortunately every time I try googling "bike cover" I get a bunch of results about covers for all the mechanical bits and pieces.


So I'm just curious, do you guys even bother coverings your bikes? Are those 1 size fits all covers good enough or does somebody make a cover specifically for the EX250 that works better? Any particular one you guys would recommend?

Thanks!

UPDATE: The Bilt motorcycle covers did not last a year outside. The sun and rain had faded the fabric to where it was brittle and easily torn. I patched up the tears with tape and it's still holding up for the most part.

I have the limited edition Ultra Gard breast cancer pink/charcoal bike cover. It has the breast cancer ribbon on the bottom.

Size: Medium
Price: $39.99

I've had it boxed up for a while and finally it started raining pretty hard here in L.A. I took it out of the box and It's held up pretty well against the rain and wind.

Awesome Bike Cover... for $12



Pick it up at your local Walmart for about $12. It's quite thick, it's weatherproof, and the entire inside is lined with a soft material.

You'd be hard pressed to find a 'motorcycle' cover that's this thick and weatherproof for less than $50, and it'll probably only have a soft lining by the windscreen.

Walmart has 65" ones for slightly cheaper, but they are thin, flimsy and not nearly as good as this 68" one. Make sure you grab the 68" pictured.

Here are the pics of the cover on my bike:









Here is a picture of the inside soft lining. The entire cover is lined with this, not just certain sections:

It has velcro straps on the bottom so you can tighten it snuggly on the bottom if you need to.

Good of you to share this bro...I'll definitely look into it. My current cover, albeit advertised as 'water proof', gets soaked through and through. Only thing it has going for it is a hook that you can pass through a hole in the cover making it extremely secure. Anyway, thanks again, I'll see how this'll hold up.

Chris, I'll let you decide that when I post pics tomorrow.


Alex, it's very nice. You'll see by the pics tomorrow. Water on this thing just beads up and rolls off. Someone else who uses this to cover their bike said it rained for 2 days and the bike underneath was completely dry.

Looks worth a try.. hell I already spent $20 on a MC cover, that is very thin and wouldn't hold up to more than a sprinkle for it's 'waterproofing' Plus it's so loose at bottom it lets way too much air in.. a few times it almost blew off, it's 1 little hook barely keeps it on.

Heat resistant? Most people are in no hurry to cover their grill, so it doesn't really have to have it.

Most motorcycle cover brands offer e "dust cover" and a "deluxe cover" with heat resistance as the main distinguishing difference.

HAHA that is pretty smart thinking!! I bought a cheap one for $15 including shipping off of ebay last year and I've never had problems with rain coming through it. It was just a generic gray bike cover. For the little hole on the bottom of the cover, I use yarn to tie the two ends together. It has worked fine for the 30mph gusts of wind we have had this past Jan. I will definitely recommend that to my friends and if I need another one I will look into it myself. Nice find saxnbass!!

When I covered the bike last night, I got home after about a 50 mile ride, so the bike was toasty hot. I went inside, got out of my riding gear, put the dog on a leash, grabbed the cover and went outside to cover it up. It was parked for all of about 5, maybe 10 minutes before I threw the cover on it. No damage or anything to the cover. The picture of the inside lining is actually the part that covers the exhaust, as you can see it's just fine.

that actually is funny looking since it doesn't go all the way down and hide the wheels. If it works well then it would be worth it.

I didn't use the velcro straps as it fits my bike pretty nicely as is, but I did use them just to see. It brings the bottom up a bit more so more of the wheel is exposed, but it does tighten up the front and back very snuggly; I can't see it going anywhere with it tightened up like that.

About it not hiding the wheels all the way, not sure why that'd be a big deal anyways. Plus, for $12, I really can't complain in any way. I'd have to spend $75+ to get a comparable motorcycle specific cover, IMO.
