Can anyone recommend a good quality outdoor waterproof motorcycle cover and what size would I need for a Fazer 1000?

oxford rainex mick, i bought the biggest one due to the top box, its been outside for over a year now and is still mint


+1, ace cover, only issue I've had is a bit wear around the footpeg area to the lining after the hurricane force winds we had.
It will be OK in the end. If it's not OK, it's not the end.

There's quite a bit of slack material round the back wheel, so I gather it up and pass a quick release webbing dog collar through the lock holes. Keeps it from flapping round in the wind.
It will be OK in the end. If it's not OK, it's not the end.

Not an option unfortunately, bikes going to be outside my mates house in front of his garage behind a couple of box trailers as there is no access to the rear of his house.
