Waterproof cover

[richardb]

Hi, anybody got any advice on a waterproof cover, that will fit even with a top box?

I've got some fancy Oxford one, but despite being the largest they do - it is not big enough.

A few years back I bought a fairly lightweight unlined plastic one, that fitted completey over my BMW F650 - with touratech panniers and a top box fitted. Not only that but it rolled up small enough to be bungied on the pillion seat. So I could take it anywhere with me.

It was perfect but finally fell apart. Unfortunately I threw it away without noting down who made it.

Since then I have found nothing that comes close to being as good, and of course the AT is that little bit bigger.

Any suggestions? I don't have a garage so really want to get one before winter sets in - although some days it seems like it already has.

thanks

There's some XL covers on Ebay at the mo, keep meaning to buy one for my Vara. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/Honda-Varadero...QQcmdZViewItem

Have mailed the seller to see if he'll give us a postage discount if we buy more than one...I'll let you know what transpires!

He He! He's only just cleared his garage out and now he's looking to fill it with bike covers!!!

Got mine from Argos, it's not Goretex but it works and covers the AT with room to spare. It comes with it's own bag and will easily bungee to the back of the seat.

I'm with Cie - Argos. It is huge. Goes over the top box (quite possible over alu boxes too - I've never tried) and nobody would be able to guess what your bike was (which is a good theft deterrent).

i went with the argos one as well - does the job

[richardb]

Argos! - I never would have believed it - do you mean the extra large one? Does it go all the way to the ground with the top box.

thanks a bunch - damn good value too.

It doesn't come all the way to the ground, but has an elasticated hem, which conveniently hooks under the front wheel mudguard and number plate in stonking winds. Oh and it has an elasticated bit that hooks under the bash plate, joining both sides, preventing it flying off.

I use the Oxford, very strong, good heat resistant liner, big and fairly cheap... available from many places inc ebay

got mine from hein gericke(no suprise there) fits over box as well and is heat resistant(you have to ask for that) which is a bonus as ya can lob it straight over a red hot exhaust no problem
