Motorcycle Cover

[Believer45]

Good day all.

1985 GL1200I with an OEM Hondaline fitted cover that finally bit the dust (got old and brittle, splitting apart). Any recommendations for a good fitting aftermarket cover? I do not have a garage so she sits outside and I cannot find any source for the Hondaline cover now.

Any and all input welcome.

Thanks -- Dave / Believer45

I bought a Coleman/Paulie Tuttel design cover heavy weight fits well and completely covers. Weather proof.. I will post pics of it ice covered.. would recommend this to any wing owner especially dressed

Here are the three pics I have of my cover on my gl1200 interstate..

Thanks, Joe. I really appreciate the pictures. How does this hang on in wind? I have a problem with the cover blowing off the bike - we have a six acre field behind the house and get steady winds quite a bit. I also have an over height windshield, do you see any issue with an additional 5" over the stock windshield height? The pictures look like a bit of a tight fit from windshield top down to the front tire.

Only held on by 2 bungies... snug front to back... but has lots of freedom in the fabric.. not real tight.. the heavier weight does more to help hold on.. wind didn't affect it at all... 5 inches might be a stretch.. but you could get the largest cover and see how it fits... if not return it... if your out my way you can try mine...

Mine is a Paul Jr. Design. Sold by Coleman... found this at wall Mart.. felt like same material as mine... this also has trailer tie downs.. if you make it trailer queen for a trip... about $60 at my local Wal-Mart where I bought my cover before

This is the size for goldwings .. large cruisers ... style..

I ride a GL1500 with both whip antennas for radio and CB... I have seen half covers that does the front back to the seat... It would have been nice if Honda did an antenna that folded down so you can use a cover... What do other 1500 riders do about a cover???

They do, lift up at the base(the part that is scored) and they can fold forward. :Egyptian:

Here is my "cover". https://www.ecanopy.com/stl-70403.html This is so much more convenient and doesn't take up much room. I've had several different covers before I went this route.

I sure wish I could put one of these at work.
