personally ive looked at these in a lot of detail and to sumerise dont bother. At best you need to have them against a wall or something else there going to get destroyed by wind.

my bike lives out doors in all weathers. Invest in a decent cover. Ive had the oxford aqua cover and that was good value for money. Ive got the R&G cover on it at the moment and its the biggest waste of money ive ever spent!!!! and i buy some real ****e! (genuine sakeoil purchaser here) Our lass has got me this one for christmas. http://www.dustoffcovers.co.uk/waterproof.htm# it seems well put together and they said if its not up to my standard they will give me a full refund! cant say fairer than that!

I've been looking for a indoor cover for a while and all this time they have been on my doorstep!!
Sent them an email.

Expensive for what it is. I would have thought it's not going to give any better protection than a normal bike cover.

my last cover rubbed the corners off my paintwork which is why i decided to get the tent. but as said never got the chance to test it.
