Hi Guys and dolls,

Can anybody recommend a good fitted bike cover that fits the NC30 it only needs to cover the bike from dust etc as the bike is kept in a dry garage all of trhe time.

Thanks all.

Hi Sunnyday, I use a Bering Kovo size M for the NC35 that stays in the garage (even if it is water proof). I know NC30 is slightly longer/larger/higher, but just 1 or 2 cm, but it will probably fit.

I use oxford protex premium stretch indoor cover. I have one which is over 4 years old so they seem to last well. Soft and as as it says stretchy, think I have a medium one on my nc30. They're about £30 if you shop around.

Dunno what's wrong with an old sheet myself. I was given a posh, fitted cover for my NC29. Elasticated in all the right places, nice snug fit, soft fleecey inside, even says HONDA on both sides. Never gets used. Too much hassle tugging it into place, making sure the stretchy bits go over the indicators, mirrors, foot pegs etc (the 'sticky out' bits) without getting caught. Takes bloody ages. Go for an old sheet mate, might not look as good but far more practical :lol:

I use 5 of these covers, 3 for RVF400's, 1 for VFR400r and one for a VFR800. All do the job perfectly well - In fact will be buying another soon ... lol

Haha, that's what I've got, a Dust Off cover. If you're using the bike regularly I still reckon a sheet is more practical but I guess if it's not going to be used then why not treat it to a posh cover? To be honest I hardly ever cover my bikes. They live in a garage attached to the house, accessed via French windows. It's next to the shower room, so every morning I spend a moment admiring them before my daily ablutions.
