You really don't need cover but good insurance if you must get one from amazon for 20 bucks XXXL size or bigger you have to poke holes for the antenna unless you are willing to spend some serious $$$ on a Moco one.
It would seem obvious that you have never traveled on your bike/bikes and had occasion to stay in a hotel? Many of us do, hence the need to cover our bike/bikes.
Not busting your ***** but we do not all fit into the same mold and many of us live outside the box. As an aside when we do travel we like to not only keep our bikes under wraps discretely but also as secure from the elements as possible.
Now, as I like to quote the movie, Be Cool, LOL
You couldn't bust my ***** if you tried....
I've ridden as far North as S. Dakota, and every other State from Bike week in Daytona Florida starting in '95 to California and all points in between...
What do you do when you ride into a thunderstorm? Pull under a bridge and cry? Cover your bike? You don't live outside the box, LMAO....
Pearl at a Hotel on a road trip, uncovered.....lol.....
and a Gal that doesn't give a **** if we ride into a thunderstorm or not, or cover the bike.....

I agree with you. You never know the weather you will incur while traveling. Hail, dust storms, severe rain all suck. I don't care how good you treat your seat, they are sponges. The other issue is when the wife says her seat is soaked and is miserable with wet pants it is not worth the dealing with not having that cover. This is why I carry my half cover with me that i purchased from the tour king out of Texas. for my ultra.

I would suggest finding a half cover for traveling. It won't take up a lot of room and it will do the job. The tour king out of texas is an option also you can google half covers. A lot of options out there. Mine did the job when we traveled to Sturgis from CT.

Cheap Nelson Rigg or something that says Honda. I have a Nelsonn Rigg and cut 2 little openings for the antennas , I like to have it on there to cover the electronics...I just lost a radio due to rain in the mountains , 3rd in 99000 miles.

I had a Dowco cover when I had to keep my Softail outside of my house for a bit before I got a small outbuilding set up. Pretty generic looking, black on top, grey around the bottom that was heat resistant fabric. Worked really well. Check them out, they should have one for your model.
This is the same cover I use as well. It holds up great in the rain and in all kinds of weather conditions. Picked it up from amazon. Highly recommend DOWCO and no harley patches anywhere which is a plus.
Amazon, search for formosa motorcycle cover. Mine is a great fit. Has soft inserts for the fairing and windshield. Has anchors for under the bike for wind. You do need to remove antennas from tourpak. It was like $30 and comes with a bag
