What is your goal? A dust cover or cover with protection from impacts (kids w/bikes, pets, etc)?
My experience is that tight covers aren't as easy to get on & off.
I wanted indoor covers for dust protection only..
I used sheets for several years, but they would fall off every now & then... other than that they worked well.
I bought a couple "Nelson-Rigg DC-505-04-XL Grey X-Large Indoor Dust Cover".... they are cheap, soft, and have lasted a few years with no signs of wear. I got mine on Amazon..$26.75 for the XL for my softail and $28.84 for XXL for my ultra
Good luck with your purchase...

I've used bed sheets for years. I use a $19.95 wally mart for road trips, packs down small.
This will do the job.

bed sheet.
you want a "dust cover"- it needs to be able to allow fumes from gas or battery charging and moisture to pass through and away from the bike.
you want 100% cotton- polyesters can scratch finishes.
to spend more than you need to is folly

100% Cotton King Sized Sheet.
Breathes, no scratch, rolls up tight, pick one up at the thrift store under $5.
I cover a 'Vette with a "California King" cotton set - fitted sheet fits snug around the nose, loops onto the mirrors. Flat sheet covers doors, top, and rear end.
Great for in the garage!
