I have the HD covers and think they're great. 300 miles of rain to Sturgis last year and my feet stayed dry. The wife was a little skeptical but by Rapid City she was a believer.

I have some rain boot covers from Tourmaster that I use on my Heritage in the rain. On my Limited, if I keep my feet behind the lowers, they rarely get wet at all.

I have a set of Tourmasters but my HD engineer boots are waterproof, so I only wear the covers if it's pouring.

I use the Harley Rain Gaiters. They are a must have for touring when its pouring rain out. They pack small and my boots remain dry.

When I wear them I stay dry. If it is only a passing cloud sometimes I won't wear them. It's the sometimes when I don't wear them, I sometimes get wet. I like dry, the real pain in the *** is getting wet and trying to dry out.

What he said.

Seems like the Tourmaster is pretty popular and cheap. How are they sized?

And, should they be worn outside or inside of pants?

On topic,

Waterproof boots, the kind with a gusseted tongue, got poured on twice last week in KS and MO stayed dry. Never used boot covers.

Off topic.

Yeah it rains here, we get some pretty nasty thunderstorms this time of year.
