Default I need a really light and quick bike cover

I have the thick stiff HD one with the silver eagle and shield on it, but i dont use it since its a pain to put on and keep handy. I'll use it for longer storage periods though.

I'm looking for something like a quick lightweight breathable cotton cover. I had one for my Buell. I just need something easy to keep the dust off. Any recomendations?

Any aftermarket jap shop should have one for about 20 bux, or you can try the JC Whitney catalog.

If it is indoor, I use old bed sheet.

As posted by aviator, the cover available at Walmart is a great way to go.

I bought one of these XL bike covers at Pep Boys last year for a Switchback, with full windshield and hard bags, and that thing is HUGE.
Even with the windshield on the bike, there was still a foot of material laying on the ground - it's much bigger than the picture on the box suggests:
It was about $30.

Ding, Ding, Ding... winner... I've use old bed sheets for for over 30 yrs, It takes 2 queen sheets to cover my Heritage.. and I even also use them during winter storage as they don't hold moisture...

Black fitted sheet with the elastic. Works perfectly! Two of them, $6 each on clearance.
