Suitable motorcycle cover for Tenere

Can anyone recommend a suitable motorcycle cover for the Tenere - it must be able to reach to the floor. RiDE magazine have these as their top 3 (R&G Superbike, Oxford Rainex & Motrax Deluxe), but I'm not sure if they are suitable for the taller dual purpose bikes. Anyone use a cover that fits the bill? Cheers Mark.

Mine gets an Oxford Stormex thrown over it and it does ok. The fibre lining can wick rain up from the floor on shorter bikes, but is ok on the tenere. I doesn't quite cover the front wheel mind.

I have my eye out for a cover also, but I wanted one that will pack away to a small pack size so that you can take it with you on the bike.

Anyone seen something suitable?





Nick.

I picked up a Motrax Deluxe cover (large size) in the end - �40. Completely covers the Tenere and has lock holes front and rear to thread a chain through. Folds/rolls up just enough to put in a Kreiga US-10 pack.

Asda ---

Mine came from Asda for 25 quid - doesn't quite reach the ground - has an eye-hole at the front and velcro strip fasteners fore and aft.

Doubt if any amount of locks on the cover would defeat a blunt knife but having the bike out of sight seems to be a deterrent in itself.

Oh yes - it comes in a small stuffsack that I'm sure I've lost somewhere.

Downside - I've had it over a year - probably much longer and the hems are beginning to tear where the velco ties are. Strong winds give any cover quite a tousing.
