High winds, sand, mud, twigs and insects may blow on your machine, not to mention snow and ice in wintry conditions. Standing next to your bike for ten minutes waiting for it to cool down isn’t convenient if you’re hurrying to work or late for an appointment. Neither do you want to melt your new motorcycle cover against hot exhaust pipes. All the covers on test here that were designed for outdoor use are sufficiently waterproof to withstand heavy rain. Some are more sturdy, but that won't necessarily keep your bike more dry. The materials will be more durable though, if product longevity is important to you. No matter what type of bike product your buying, from the simple accessories through to the full setup of your custom built road bike, there are lots of important considerations that you should take into account, especially when you’re shopping online and unable to test the product first. This is especially true when you’re buying products like Bike Covers.

Bike covers are primarily designed to keep water off your bike, which over time can lead to corrosion. We all ride in the rain, and your bike won't dissolve if it gets wet, but if you are regularly storing your bike outside, either at work or at home, then a bike cover might be a good idea to protect your bike and stop the wear from accelerating. Which type of bike cover is best? A stranger walking up to a motorcycle and peering underneath the cover is likely to attract attention. Anything that slows down a thief improves the chances of your bike remaining where it is.

For Highlands, Northern Ireland, Isle Or Man and other non mainland locatons additional charges will apply. Don’t underestimate the wind. Once a strong breeze gets underneath the cover, it can lift it like a hot air balloon and tear it apart over a few hours. Choose a model with not just a middle strap but clips on the front and rear. This very much depends on your use case. If you only need to store the bikes outside at home, and don't need to bring a cover with you out and about then a large, sturdy option like the Storm Skin will likely be the best bet. A brief rain shower is unlikely to ruin your bike. But parked outside and exposed to the elements for weeks on end will result in a slow deterioration.

Choose a cover that has built-in protection against heat. Often this comes in the form of heat-resisting panels and lining. Riders can enjoy at least five years from a good cover, which equates to very little annually for keeping your machine in good condition.
