....... i put the HD one's on soon after getting the scooter as I just didn't wanna have to think about my boots clearing the lid whilst getting on w/the TP back there.
.... i always take'm off when cleaning
... the stick on velcro under the lid can 'move' if you stretch'm on when it's hot out.
....... the lids are just too easy to scratch & the bra's are just too carefree & protective for me to ever spend much time with'm off.

 

I have my lid covers on in this picture. My last two bikes were either all black or had a lot of black in the paint scheme so the back covers looked good on those. This bike being blue and silver I just didn't like the look of black covers. I went to my local window tinter and had him put on the 3M type clear bra. I also did the side covers. You have to look really hard to see it. What I like is that it still allows the metal flake to still shine thru.
