I've got one on my bike and im 99% sure its a medium. I think large is meant for crusiers and other monster bikes. Wait for confirmation though as i am somehwat inebriated.
![]() Just a point of order; They are great covers but if you leave them touching the ground they can suck up water into the lining. I just have mine slightly elevated off the ground. |

ive been looking into it and the dimensions of the medium are perfect for width and height, but aparently 10cm shy on length, it migth squeeze on, but i dont really want to get a large as it will definatly touch the ground

If I remember correctly, I have the medium and it's a perfect fit.

I have a medium too & it's fine.
If you go for something hideous like a *cringe* topbox you'll probably need a large HTH Last edited by _drummer_; 19-11-07 at 08:05 AM. |

+1 for the medium ... front and back are elasticated and once on the bike (SV) leaves about a 6 - 9" gap from the ground.

medium is fine although mine was a little long and touched the floor so make sure you tuck it up a bit to avoid it sucking up water!

Medium, Don't buy it though if you're planning on carrying it around - it's huge!

I get loads of woodlice and other kreepy crawlies getting into mine when I forget to tuck mine up! It's that big and heavy that you can throw it in the back of a pick-up and drive along dual carriageway and it doeasn't even move, let alone blow out of the back!! |
