    Outside cover with panniers

    I’m going to a few festivals this summer and would like to hide my new pride and joy from obvious attention. I don’t need an all singing cover as it is normally garaged, this is just for the occasional theft protection/ deterrent. Can any one recommend a good value cover that covers bike with panniers still fitted . The cheaper Oxford ones look ok but too narrow with panniers . R&G do one that would work but it’s £60. Something in between would be ideal . Many thanks

    I do understand looking for other parts and fittings to save some pennies as we all do it, but don't cut corners when it comes to security you might regret it.
    This is just my view on keeping the scum bags away.

    MCN had a bit about a Held cover in their bargains column this week for just under 20 quid, a saving of 50% [not 105% MCN say] Go on the Getgeared website and they have several types including Oxford. https://www.getgeared.co.uk/type/motorbike-covers

    Oh and the Getgeared site gives dimensions so that should help.

    Badass motorcycle cover size large on amazon about 125$ usb I believe.  I used it for a trip recently and all my friends were asking about it.  Great weight, well made, and elastic bottom, ties on bottom and metal ring under engine to lock it on.  I can post a pic later possibly.

    Blessed with a 950 with panniers (no top case though), but no garage (yet), I decided on the ‘Alfa cover’ from DS Covers (from NL)
    Not cheap, but good!

    https://www.dscovers.nl/product/alfa-motorhoes/

    Recommended size is XL for our bikes.

    Roughly 80 euro, don’t know shipping costs outside of NL...

    In the end I got the R&G adventure one via amazon ( much cheaper than direct from R&G). Fits nicely with panniers and steering lock on .

    I also have panniers...... with out the panniers fitted a large is the correct size BUT..... even with the XL size the cover is a little on the small size in width, but is the best I have found so far

    Hi. I am looking for a cover and I have stopped at R&G Adventure Bike Outdoor Cover. Have anyone tried this ?

    I have the R&G cover.  It fits bike and panniers fine but I need to remove the top box to fit it.
