i've been worried about this too. mines been sitting outside under a cover this winter. i have a shed outback but its lifted about 2ft off the ground so ill have to build a longer less steep ramp for it. i'd also have to ride the bike through the grass across a small side hill to get it in/out of the shed.

The dowco covers are nice, I've had several of them. I believe the guardian is one of dowco's product lines

I've got a Carcoon Bike Bubble.
Charges your battery, keeps the dust off the bike and protects it from corrosion.
It doesn't get better than this.

They also make outdoor versions.

I have the same cover and agree. It works great. I winter my bike in my father's garage and on a battery tender, but during the riding season, I keep it in the driveway with a Dowco Weatherall Plus and it does well.

I use a mini truck cover- it completely encases the bike and I can work under it with a trouble light that adds heat.

What is this "wintering my bike" that you guys are speaking of? Wintering here means putting on a balaclava and warmer riding clothes...

Just messin' with all ya'll Snow Birds...

Mine is for a street bob but I'm almost thinking I purchased an XL even though their website says M should fit. I like them to be a little big so that I can pull it down over the entire bike instead of having it fit like the pictures show on their website.

The one I got was a little loose fitting stock but then I added a sissy bar and a little taller apes and it fits perfectly.

I'll check when I get home and let you know what size it is for sure.
