Default suggestions for a cover

Hey all,

I'm looking for some suggestions for a cover for my road king. I'm not necessarily storing it for winter but I'd like to have something on it when I'm not riding it. Something that will help against dust and whatnot. It will be stored in a car port when I'm not riding it.thanks for feedback and suggestions.

King size bed sheet works good. Buy a cheapo at the dollar store.

I got my cover at W-M too but it was $20-25. Maybe they're more down under.

Exigent makes great covers. I've have been using these on my bikes for years. I even take one when traveling. It comes with a compression bag and takes very little space.

I use an Oxford Stormex - very tough, ventilation holes up near the handle bars, belly strap and a fleecy interior that won's scratch your tank or melt onto the pipes.

Google it.
