yes, I sure do. You never know when you might want to cover. I have a plain that covers the bike completly all the wat down to the tires. Under the cover you would never know it is a hog. Outta sight outtta mind.

Did a quick count and figure I've spent over 130 nights on the road with the bike in the last 10 years. Not only do I not take a cover with me, I don't recall seeing any bikes with covers at the hotels, motels or resorts that I've stayed at (I'm not a camper). Given that expericence I'm really surprised at how many on here say thay take a cover.

What's a cover? If I covered it, then the denim black paint would never get a chance to age the way it should. No cover for me, got a shammy in the bag to wipe dew and rain off the seat.

Usually leave my cover home. I should get a plain Jane lightweight one for the road.
