Sorry fellas, I was on vacation....
I do make these, kinda prototype right now, meaning that the mold is not perfect. I'm making my production mold now. I'll sell the prototypes for $40, once my production mold is done I'll probably be charging $60. The cover is ONLY meant to be used for washing your bike, and if your caught in the rain. It will stay on during riding, but I would not keep it on all the time. If your still interested, PM me and I'll make some. Free shipping (lower 48), paypal...
Here is a link to an install video I made, this was the first cover made...

LOL, I did actually have a couple cocktails on that trip, first in a long time! All sober and ready to go! I rented a bike on the island, drove the entire coastline. All I can say is once you think you have seen the best part, go past the next twisty and you see something even better! Worth the rental! And this whole group is a bunch of "Great damn guys!" Looking forward to our next rendezvous!

To all that have messaged me about your covers, I did make a few tonight, but I wasn't happy with them. I won't send out something I wouldn't put on my own bike. I'm still dragging a little from vacation, so I will be working on them all week and will have a bunch ready to ship on Monday. Please Do not send me any money, until I confirm with you via PM that I have yours ready.
Thank you!
Thank you!

Well, I managed to mold 11 covers tonight, I'll glue the magnets in tomorrow and they should be ready to ship on Monday. So, time for a little disclaimer....
If you are expecting something that is PERFECT, please don't buy it. These are made from thermo-molded plastic, not a piece of glass. There are imperfections in the plastic, but they do not degrade your ability to see your radio clearly. These are made of a similar plastic that goods are packaged in, the stuff you have to cut open with scissors. Like anything if you don't take care with it, like just throwing it in your saddle bag, it can break, it can scratch. These are made with the intention of keeping water out of your radio when you wash your bike, get caught in the rain, etc... while still being able to see your radio display and without breaking the bank or mounting some (IMO) ugly accessory permanently to your bike. It is not a cover to be left on all the time. I'm including pictures to show the clarity, and I've tried to take pictures of the flaws as well. So with that in mind, first come first serve and I already have several PM's.

Trying to capture the flaws, it's hard to do, but they are there. This isn't glass...

So i received my Dickeys Cycles splash cover, and as Rad10 stated (If you are expecting something that is PERFECT, please don't buy it) that being said it is as he claimed
Im happy with it, haven't had a chance to use it as intended yet but it looks like it will work as intended
Looking forward to seeing the next revision
