Default Covers for winter storage

Sadly I must think about storing my UC for winter. This just kills me to do. But being in Pennsylvania we do get a few COLD weeks and some snow! I have a Dowco cover from my traded Goldwing. It was easy to use because it has a zipper in the back. My problem now is the 2 antennas on the UC. What the hell do I do with them. Can they be removed? bent far enought o accept the cover? or should I buy a new cover? How do cover and store your scoot?

Just un-screw them from the base, and cover it.

If you have your bike in the garage, you want a breathable cover, unless you want to hold in the moisture and and set yourself up for rust. I use a simple bed sheet to cover my bike. Keeps the dust off and moisture out.
