Title: Almost as good as a garage
Review: If any of us had a choice we'd be storing our bikes in a temperature controlled garages with motion detectors and security cameras, but we can't. I was a bit uneasy about leaving my bike out in the wild but this cover definitely put my mind at ease.Very thick and durable material, heavier than every other cover I've seen. Water repellant, the water beads right off and my bikes are always dry. Dust proof? I live in southwest Kansas. Dust gets everywhere, I can't expect the cover to be 100% perfect. It seems heat resistant, as good practice i don't throw it on right after a long ride.It also has a strap that clips underneath the bike to keep the wind from billowing it up as well as rubber/heavy duty sewn holes to strap it down further if you so wish it. So far the highest winds I've seen it get to are 50 mph w/60mph gusts and the bike stayed put.It also has two holes that sit on the front of the bike near the front tire to loops a security chain or lock through to keep the cover from being so easily taken off the bike by unwanted guests.I purchased this and another one for my Honda Cb750 and my KLR which was an adv size. The sizing is near perfect. For sizing check Dowcos website as they have a full list of bikes on there. It does take a while to get used to putting the cover on but with practice makes perfect. I'd test the true heat resistance of the cover but don't want to potentially damage it just for the sake of curiosity nor melt anything onto my bikes exhaust. These are definitely worth the price and the investment.

Title: Love the GREY version!
Review: UPDATE: I LOVE this cover! I don't even know what I wrote before. I ended up with the grey color in a size Large that fits my 1200 Sporty beautifully WITH my 12 inch sissy bar. I set my timer for 20 min after taking ignition key out, then I throw over one of those quilted dime a dozen moving blankets in case of moisture and for added protection. The grey, maybe because you can see the inside seams and the heat sheilds that you can't see on the black was very easy to put on. The grey also blends in with surroundings so it doesn't scream Hey, motorcycle here! The belly strap clips easily. The vent has a little hood so water doesn't get in. It sits perfectly over the left handlebar. It's been thru some pretty heavy, windy rain storms and bike stays bone dry, water just rolls right off. NAlso, not a single melted spot by the pipes and my bike gets HOT. I might even be able to cover bike after 15 min of cool time but I don't want to chance it. Super happy, I've no doubt it'll winter like a champ. When the time comes and I need a new cover I'll be getting this one again. Dowco for the win!Not sure about this cover. It has a 20" square patch of white felt type lining where the right handgrip is. I tried centering it thinking maybe it's a windshield protector but it twisted and looked weird when I did. There is a black felt type lining on either side of the bottom. Is that the heat shield? Who knows. Pictured is my Sportster 1200. I tried the medium, really snug. Also tried the large. A little big but I have a sissy bar I plan to install so I may keep the large. Not as heavy as I thought. Not very intuitive to put on, it has seams that just dont make much sense so I struggled a bit.

Title: Fantastic cover, durable and strong
Review: I bought this cover to replace a cheapo dust cover I bought a few months ago because my little scooter stays outdoors. It fits my Vespa LX150 (with a top box!) PERFECTLY. I bought the Medium.It is incredible quality and looks like it will last for years and years. The elastic is strong and feels like it will retain its springyness. The material is thick, yet the cover can fold down to fit in the storage under my seat. The zip case is a nice addition, just stuff the cover in and take it with you if you need to. It is also easy to fit/place, because it has a tag that tells you which side is the Front. Very convenient and quick.I also bought a python lock to secure this cover and it works perfectly. I have peace of mind now, knowing my Vespa is covered, safe, and well protected!Only time will tell how this actually holds up to the weather in San Francisco. My last cover was awful and caused some of the metal on the scooter to rust from the light drizzle that occurs at night.

Review: I didn't want to review too soon without using it for a few months. I needed waterproof and easy to secure on and off. I'm in a colder part of Canada (Montreal) so the in-between seasons spring and fall (before and after winter storage) it's important to have good protection from nasty weather. It can get pretty wet, windy, cold.I park my Sportster on the street in the downtown area, so you don't want the cover to be too obvious how to remove easily or it will possibly get stolen. This cover secures underneath the bike and you can tie weird knots with the excess belt once tightened. It's not going anywhere.I really, really like this product. It checks ALL of the boxes. Great value for money because it fits and protects my bike perfectly!

Review: Fits perfectly, and is heavy duty I like it a lot. Even though it's a motorcycle cover I used it for my dirt bike and it's still a very good fit. The tarp itself looks cool too xD I haven't used it for winter yet though.

Review: Seems pretty study and waterproof so far. I am just not sure of the fit. The guide identified medium for my Yamaha VStar 650, and yes, it fits the length, but the fit is not that good on the upper body of the bike. As a result, it is loose and baggy in areas, and water pools in the folds for the poor fit.

Title:
Review: I got the SP model for my Yamaha XSR700; I highly recommend you go go to the Dowco website to search for your motorcycle, and make sure of fitment because these fit tight! Honestly for my bike, the SP size (aka Medium size) fits very tight and it's a bit of a chore to put on the bike; there's no loose fabric, everything's pretty stretched and a tight fit when on, but I think that's the idea! As a result water really drips down, after downpours my bike is perfectly dry, and the little venting enclosure lets air out in order to combat condensation.A bit pricey, should honestly be around $80 to be considered an incredible value, but the quality is definitely well above what you find at big box stores.Just make sure you have the right model for your motorcycle and you won't regret your purchase!
Customers say
Customers are satisfied with the motorcycle cover's fit, durability, and weather resistance. They find it fits well over the rear and front brakes, keeping their motorcycle dry. The elastic is snug, but that makes it easier to put on and off. Many of them consider it a good purchase and value for money. However, some customers dislike seam tears.
