Default Motorcycle cover on Groupon?

Anyone have one of these that can comment about quality, etc?

A good price ($20-$25 depending on size), but hesitant to buy before knowing more.

I've got a Trackside cover I bought from CycleGear several years ago that is probably equivalent to this cover, it even looks a little like it; water resistant (not waterproof), elastic bottom, heat resistant, etc.

I use it when I travel to cover the bike at night. It folds down nice and small, keeps the worst of the dew and rain off, and hides the fact that it's a Harley. If that's what your looking for, it might be ok.

If you're looking for something to protect your bike from all sorts of weather, on a daily basis, I think you'd be wasting your money.

Just my opinion.

It looks very similar to my Nelson Riggs cover, which has served me well for about 6 years now. I like that it doesn't say what's under the cover.

I'm just thinking it might be a little better than the fitted sheet I'm using now when stored in the garage. Don't really care about being waterproof, etc. This would be just to keep the dust off when not riding and for winter storage since I'm in Michigan.

Mostly worried about the material and scratching, etc.

I've also used a N-R cover for several years, no problems.
