Default bike cover recommendation

Does anyone have any suggestions on a light weight cover I can use to protect my bike from the sun while I have it parked at work all day. Also, I do not necessarily want it to cover the entire bike...front fender, over the windshield and top of saddlebags. It would be great if the cover also had a method lock in place and keep folks from taking an interest and walking off with it.

Go to the bottom of the page and search for "bike cover". I tried it and had 50 hits. Too many to go over here for you. Hopefully, you'll find something useful.

As said above, Wal-Mart here has a cover for $19.95. However, I have an Exigent brand cover I bought in 05 and it's great.

kwikover makes one that's really slick, just covers the top of the bike and folds up into a case on the back of the seat.

Us cheapskates use a mylar space blanket, cut to shape with some bungee at the corners. Hard to find one long enough, but they reflect sun and deflect rain.

for a quality all weather cover i got the xl from drag specialties. its heavy duty, heat shielded, and has microfiber in the windshield area. 99$. i also like the fact that it does NOT have harley logos plastered all over it. i feel its better not to advertise
