Default Motorcycle Cover?

Who makes a well fitting motorcycle cover for a Street Glide. I want one that fits well and doesn't droop all over the floor when on. The HD covers are made for bikes with tour paks and doesn't seem to fit well. Where I park my bike in the garage, the afternoon sun beats on it and I dont like it. If I can't find a good cover soon, the OL's Infiniti is going outside.

GEZA Gear makes stretch covers that are fitted. Nice stuff, can be pricey based on what material you choose. They have full or half covers.
Or you could go with a traditional half cover, lots of choices out there on that end. Or for really inexpensive (if just for indoors) go with a bed sheet of the correct size....

I just purchased an EZ touring full cover for my ultra. Has elastic cord around the bottom and does not touch the ground (but of course i have a tour pak). Really nice cover, they make half covers also.

Get a curtain or shade on the window. Covers hold moisture in.

Wow, you're a genius. Every single cover listed on google says they fit well. I have two covers right now and I can guarantee they dont fit well.

Thanks everyone else for the replies. Some of these covers appear to fit the way I like. Its in a temperature controlled (if she didnt insist on leaving the door open) garage and the sun comes through the door in the afternoon. I keep a sheet over it but the wind blows it off and im tired of picking it up. I have the Harley cover but it sits on the floor and seems like i throw more trash on the bike taking it off...

I have a Harley cover. The wife bought it for me when I had the heritage. Maybe that's the difference, but it fits my Ultra quite well and has an elastic bottom to keep it fromdragging on the floor or blowing off.

Default Anyone else have the same problems with cats

marking any kind of cover? My Bbq cover gets sprayed all the time and so does the bike cover. Everywhere I've ever lived I've dealt with the same problem with those damn cats.
It's a good thing I love cats or I'd devise a devious type of trap for the little &%#@&!
