Default Seeking Recommendation for Cover

I'm looking for a recommendation on a half cover for when I ride to the office. I was looking at the HD Oasis Day cover, but Kuryakyn has one that is significantly less expensive. Does anyone have any input/locations to purchase from?

Does it cover the fairing or just from the tank back

I have always used "Exigent" covers with good results. Reasonable price for a quality product. Google Exigent motorcycle covers.

Looks like the Ultra XL covers the fairing too.

I got the Oasis day cover from Harley, #98717-06, Had it over a year. Fits perfect, folds up into it's own small pouch and covers the entire fairing. If you don't have a tour pack it covers the hard bags. it has little plastic holes that the antennas go through and it's bright orange so people can see it and not whip in what they think is an empty parking spot. Love mine, been through some bad storms with it and worked great.

Check Target on line. They have a nice one. $40 I believe. My Buddy bought one for a trip for his SG and it is a nice fit.

I always ask this.....Why half a cover? Why not just get a full cover?

I have a full cover with heatshields that can be put on a hot bike. It takes no more time to put it on, takes up very little space in the bag, and only cost 40 bucks.
