bike cover

    bike cover

    Hey everyone,

    I am wondering if any of you can suggest a bike cover to me. I have an 84 vf500 interceptor, if that makes any difference (pictures soon!). This is the last piece of gear that I need before I will actually start riding regularly, as my jacket is in the mail right now! I have been avoiding anything to do with motorcycles like the plague, as I went broke shortly after buying the bike 3 weeks ago, but payday is coming, so help me choose a cover! I would really like a locking cover, or at least one that I can buy a lock for to add-on.

    Thanks,

    P

    ...and with this being the third and final vote for Dowco, the matter is officially settled. Thank you.

    Can't go wrong with Dowco. They have a great lifetime warranty (don't lose your receipt!!). With that being said, my Nelson-Rigg cover has definitely held up better than my Dowco did over time (being treated the same way as the Dowco).

    They didn't ask me, but they asked Q.
