Default Need a bike cover for my FXDB with 14" Apes

I am now onto trying my luck with a third cover for my street bob.

I bought one of of ebay that they say is for large bikes (size xxl like goldwings) to try and cover my bike, a street bob with 1" risers and 14" apes.

Does anyone know where to get a cover that can accommodate the apes, and it actually covers the front tire...thanks

walmart XL $20 i have 5 of these for my bikes in various sizes... great cover and cheap! it can take a min to figure out what the front and back is... so on all of mine i find the center front and put a F on there in black marker, makes it so much easier and faster for install on the bike

the bike on the left was covered in the cover that is on it outside for 2 years... just a few small rips in it... all i did for those was flip it inside out... and duck tape... yes i am that cheap and it worked great!

here it is on my bike with 16in apes and 2.5 risers

I have a Dowco Weatherall plus cover for my street bob and I like it a lot.

I had a large from my sportster but ended up buying an XL for my bob. With the stock handlebars and nothing else it is a little loose but still works fine. When I put my HD one piece detachable sissy bar on the bike the cover fits perfectly and still covers all but the very bottom of the front tire.
