Any more suggestions? I'm also looking for an outdoor cover for my RK for a trip I have coming up. I like the exigent covers but it's almost double the cost of other covers I've seen that appear to be comparable.

UV2000 HALF COVER SILVER
This thing is inexpensive and it works great. It's rugged but packs small. It keeps the bike clean and dry even though it doesn't reach the ground.

With these covers, how long do you have to wait to put them on? I notice my bike is still very hot to the touch hours after I park it.

I picked this up in early 2011 for $33 and took it on 2 trips and it worked great. Comes with a bag to pack it in and it could fit inside a helmet.

Amazon Amazon

I wait a few hours before putting it on.

Damn, $20... Could buy 6 of them for what Harley wants for their covers... Might just have to give it a go. Decent reviews too...

I actually went to the Honda dealership to try to buy a Goldwing cover for my scoot. Heck, they were as high or higher than one from the MOCO. I did not want the HD logo on mine so I went to Wally World and bought a Coleman cover that has been made over by Paul Jr designs. After I got it home and put it on my scoot I was really impressed. It fit like a glove, went almost completely over the tires and fit like it should. My riding buddys were also satisfied and they are a hard ankle bunch of retired cops. Happy Trails......

I've spent hundreds of dollar for good quality bike covers over the years. NO MORE I went to Wally Mart & spent &19.95 for a cover that you can take with you on road trips. It's packs into a small enough size bag to take with you. It cover the complete bike. Good luck.

I have the dowco weather all plus ez zip. i believe mine is an XL, fits the SG perfectly. the only thing left exposed is the jiffy stand where it touches the ground.

the xl probably won't work with a tour pack. my bike is stored outside in the summer, so i was looking for full protection. cover is a little bulky, but it will fit in a saddle bag, just won't get much else in there.

i've been pleased with it keeping the bike dry and it seems to be vented good too.
