Does anyone have any good recomendations for covers. I park in a garage but like to keep the bike protected from the unexpected.
Thanks

The Geza covers (http://www.gezagear.com) seem to be popular. They are really pretty pricey but they fit nice and fit into a small package to take with you. I'm saving up for one myself.

However the Geza covers are water resistant (and only if you follow their procedure for treatment) and not water proof. It will get soaked in a good rainstorm and then you have a soaking wet mess to stick in your saddlebag. Also mine (I've tried two of them) lasted about 1 1/2 years before sun did them in and they started falling apart.

Mills Fleet Farm has good cover at a good price.

JCWhitney has an X-large bike cover that fits an ST with a top case. Packs into a stuff sack small enough that I take it with me on trips where the bike is outside overnight. Cost was under $30 to my door.

What about this one on ebay?
ST1300 Motorcycle Cover (http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&rd=1&item=4536741725&category=35557)
It's even waterproof.
The only question I have is does it fit a topbox.
The price is certainly good at $24.

That looks like the same one I got from Fleet Farm. I really like it. It fits my top box just fine. I also like the heat protected panel so you can put it over the exhaust pipe.

I use a king size sheet. It breaths, will not hold moisture, protects against the small stuff and keeps the dust off. You can tie it together just under the back fender and just underneath the front fairing. Just have the winshield all the way down. The battery tender plugin drops down from just underneath the seat.
