NinjaDoc Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Can somebody suggest a good/economical motorcycle cover for zx 6r? I am still debating between covered storage vs good cover + car port. But was looking at some covers, very confusing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bad324 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 if you do leave it outside covered, I highly suggest securing it in some way so the wind doesn't catch the cover like a sail and knock the bike over. Happened to the previous owner of my first bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Revelstoker Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 if you do leave it outside covered, I highly suggest securing it in some way so the wind doesn't catch the cover like a sail and knock the bike over. Happened to the previous owner of my first bikeYea, what he said. But, if I had to leave my bike out to the elements, I would buy one of the covers that are more like a bag. Even tied down, all kinds of crap blows up under the cover and animals like to hide out in pipes and air intakes.Just make sure it breathes to let condensation out but something like this is what I would do: http://www.calcarcover.com/product.aspx?id=1384&cid=5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lost1888 Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 This is the one I use at work. Works well for the purpose. Can't tell you how it would hold up outside over the winter. http://www.motorcyclegear.com/parts/closeouts/accessories/nelson_rigg/falcon_defender_3000_motorcycle_cover.html Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NinjaDoc Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 (edited) ah thx for the suggestions, so i guess its always preferable to have fully covered garage over just a partial car port plus good cover? conne that cover is awesome but 300 plus crb no ebay for me cant get it inside home pauly, live in third floor apartment Edited November 8, 2011 by NinjaDoc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
conn-e-rot Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 yes I agree it's a bit pricey and storage units aren't the cheapest either. Do you have any friends with a little garage space close by? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NinjaDoc Posted November 8, 2011 Author Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 yep, armiths gonna help out i was just wondering about keeping it in my carport itself so i can still have it close by even if i cant ride yes i am a sentimental lover of my bike Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

J_Copeland Posted November 8, 2011 Report Share Posted November 8, 2011 Youngstown Cycle Supply has some decent cover's at good prices.They're on Market St. in Boardman by the Mall.If you were closer,I would offer my garage space.You won't be real close to your bike,but it will stay dry and out of the elements.
