Bike covers
My FLHTK is going to be parked out back for awhile and I need a good cover. Don't want the advertising on the moco's covers, and would like to hear from those of you who've had some experience with these things.
Doesn't need to be ultralight, as I won't be traveling with it - strictly for use at the house. It should breath, and not damage the finish in windy conditions.
Any feedback out there?

I bought one from J&P,( Ultragard) Great cover, can be put on with bike hot, Mine is outside all the time. the only problem is with a heavy rain is that it pools over the seat, doesn't leak, but if there was a way to get it tighter so the rain would run off.

My bike is under one of these covers from Champion Covers when it is in the garage. It works ok. Keeps the dust off. Provides a little protection. Inexpensive.

It seems that all covers are built to fit with the front wheel pointed straight ahead. But most of us park our bikes with the front wheel turned to the left. Does anyone make a cover built to fit with front wheel turned left?

put a plastic coffee container ( or something ) on the seat it will raise it up and let the water run off

I park under a carport at home and outside in the hill country. I have used both Nelson-Rigg & Dowco, with no complaints.
motorcyclecloseouts.com and other "closeout" websites usually have covers
XL for all touring bikes
good luck
