looking for a good bike cover
I'm looking for a good cover all weather for my hyper. I always park it outside I live in a flat, I have no garage. MY last cover got stolen and was a piece of shit cover too. If anybody knows of a good one and a good price please let me know, thank you hypers!

I use a dowco and I'm happy with it. My bike also stays outside all year around locked to a street post. I'm in NY so it deals with the snow as well. Maybe there are better covers but so far so good for me.

I have a Nelson Rigg cover which is waterproof, vented and UV-coated. So far it has kept my hyper both clean and dry on the rare occasions it stays outside which is decent for living in the SF fog. Just remember to lock your cover to your bike or it becomes a bum tent.

I got a DOWCO Guardian. It wasnt really cheap and I had my doubts at first, but I am very very happy with it. It lets out the moisture and keeps the bike nice and dry in the worst of storms. We recently got some really hard rain here and the cover did its job!

What size dowco cover did you get? My bike is garaged but I do get some dust on it. I was thinking of the DP cover but the Dowco is about $100 less.
