Default Weather cover

I was wondering what weather covers any of you guys (or gals) use? I am transferring to a new station and won't be able to park inside all the time, so the bike will sit outside for my 24 hour shift from time to time. What does anyone recommend?

I have 2 covers. One is a half cover, works well when on short trips to keep the elements off. The other is a full cover that I use when I need to park the bike outside. Don't remember the names, but got them on e bay. Half one was about 30$ shipped, the other about 40$ shipped. The thing that I learned is the cover needs to fit tight or you will get some flopping around when the wind is up. The other thing is a very flexible, light material that is not black and something that will not trap heat.
