FJR Rain Cover

[echo690]

I have searched the forum with little success. I live in southeast Georgia and ride daily to work. This time of year we get afternoon rain and I'm looking for a good quality cover that is easy to use, provide good rain and UV protection, and it small and compact. Any suggestions. I have used the Exigent covers on my Harleys in the past, but not sure if there is better out their.

Thanks

Check out Aerostich ryder warehouse, they have a few different types to choose from.....

Nelson Rigg half cover sounds like it might be just your ticket. UV protected and waterproof, it's also cheap and compact when folded.

So what size are you guys running with the Nelson Riggs half cover?

Try Tour King. I picked one up at Americade for $40. Light and small. https://www.tourkingcovers.com/shop/

Yes, please tell us what size. In particular, that one in the foreground of the picture above. I want to cover a tail trunk and that bike looks like it has one under there.

That's mine in Daniel's photo. It is an extra large. The large is a wee bit too small, IMO and will definitely will not work with a top box.

Thanks everyone for your input.

I use this for FJR and HD. https://www.speedsupplies.com/accessorylist...h.asp?item=6412

Larger than the Nelson Riggs, covers more and is VERY small when stored in its own pouch. Not suggesting the website in link but it's the first one with picture that came up on Google search. I think I paid $42 for mine.

if you're interested I'm selling my Nelson Rigg Defender 2000 cover. It's UV and rain proof. It's only a few months old and used less than 15 times.

I use the Dow Ultralite Plus. Works good for me. Stuffs into its own zippered pouch. Also has a cinch strap to keep it from doing any serious flopping when the wind kicks up.

The UV-2000 cover I use is an XL (no top box on my FJR). And it covers things very well. Plus it doesn't use much space when packed.

My wife just got me this one for my B'Day. I wanted something to cover the seat and controls while at work. I think this will work well and is easy to deploy and store. Not having to wrestle with a full size cover when it's all wet will be nice. Super simple to install too!
