Review on Nelson Rigg DC-505-05-XX Grey XX-Large Indoor Motorcycle Dust Cover: Ultimate Protection for Your Bike by George Woods

Revainrating 3 out of 5

Soft and breathable, but not for wide handlebars and mirrors.

Pretty basic waffle weave house cover. This material is strong enough if there are no holes in it. Lightweight and breathable, no condensation problems with this case. But there are a couple of serious downsides that can affect you. 1) The cut does not fit motorcycles with wide handlebars or footrest mirrors. When the XXL size is pulled over the mirrors of my BMW R1200GS, the edge of the cap rises more than halfway to the wheels. Nelson Rigg has to use a wider bar in the handlebar area, but it's only a few inches wider than the seat area. 2) It has no grommets, bungees or laces at the bottom. So it only sticks out on the sides and tends to snag on things if you miss. I could hammer some grommets around mine and thread a string through to bring them together. Do yourself a favor, grab a marker and mark in front, back, left and right, the first time you do it will make the job a lot easier. back to.
