popgun -

Modifying one of those inexpensive (~$20) W-M motorcycle covers sounds like a good idea. If it worked, I wouldn't care too much what it looked like.

It wasn't too hard. I just bunched up the excess in a Y shape from the mirrors to the rear of the bike, pinned it and sewed t. Then cut off the excess. I couldn't seem (no pun intended) to do it inside out, like clothes, but it worked pretty good.

Maybe I'll post you a pic later, but I will have to take some abuse from Cormanus...Smile

Although my CB is always parked inside my garage when I'm not riding it, I get rid of those tank stickers ASAP so there is no color change due to sun fading as was mentioned.

Help! Can't determine what web site that cover photo came from

I just did a Google Image search for "motorcycle cover" and found the picture I wanted to post; I didn't get it from a motorcycle product website.

A variety of half covers can be found here...

Well if you click on that picture in Google images, you will find this link: http://www.gezagear.com and it goes to those covers.
