[QUOTE="THRASHED, post: 1450251, member: 98408"] First off, hello, first post here. Picked up my new (to me) 2015 in March. I have driven my truck to work exactly once since then. Love this bike for commuting and for trips up in the mountains. Planning on a PCH run start-to-end in November. Now to the meat. I've had the same cover through two bikes and if finally started falling apart. I wanted something mainly for dust and light dew. It needed to be light and packable just like the one I had (that had no tags). I finally settled on this one: [HEADING=2]Dowco Guardian 26036-00 UltraLite Plus Water Resistant Indoor/Outdoor Motorcycle Cover: Grey, Large[/HEADING] It fits the bill exactly. I thought I'd share the specifics here because it's so hard to find them in one place. The easiest way is with pics. The first two just show it stashed in the compression sack (included) without compressing it. Because my side cases are generally empty going to work, I usually don't bother with the bag and just roll it off the bike and throw it in the case. The only thing the pics don't show well is that it has a built-in strap that runs from one side to the other. Note the ruler next to the pack for measurements. For weight I used a kitchen scale: 1.860lbs, 844grams, 29.75 ounces. Cheers, THRASHED [/QUOTE]
