Thumbs down

Looks like a 99 cent plastic painter's drop cloth. What's supposed to keep the wind from blowing that giant sandwich bag away?

I just bet there are some who buy it.

Will he sell enough of them to make good money? I doubt it.

I wonder if it hits your hot exhaust will it stand up at all ? ? ?
I can get a lot of cling wrap for 9 bucks.

Some people want to keep a clean bike. I'm one of them. Don't knock it because you don't like it.

Well whats not to like about it? The disclaimer says it will melt on a hot motor,your kid will suffocate under it,not to mention all the moisture that will build up under it creating rust,moisture in gauges etc.It's advertised as a "Touring Plastic Travel Motorcycle Cover"so chances are it's going to be in the elements such as strong winds,I don't see any tie-down straps or elastic around the bottom so unless a guy sets a cinder block on his seat the cover probably won't be there in the morning.I'm pretty much fanatical about keeping my bike clean, even on the road but there are covers out there for about the same money like the afore mentioned Wal Mart brand that are a much better buy.I've used the Dowco Travel Cover for 3 years on 2 bikes 45k mi on it.It's waterproof,breathable,stuffs in a bag about 6"in diameter,has elastic around the bottom,elastic tie downs,won't melt,and cost me around 35 bucks.There's a lot of varying opinions about a lot of different products on this forum,I enjoy reading them.If someone doesn't like something they might have a good reason not to.

Iwouldn't use any kind of cover outside. The wind picks up and beats the material against the paint and dulls it out or worse. Kind of like a "bra". If I am not mistaking these bikes were built to use outdoors, in rain or shine. They get dirty, clean um later.
