Last Update: 28 October 2021

Motorcycle covers are to any rider an essential motorcycle kit component. Whether you store your motorcycle indoor or outdoor, a motorcycle cover will protect your motorcycle from countless culprits such as dust, the elements and even inhibit thieves. It is a small investment for an item that’s handy and a key preventative benefiting your long-term motorcycle care.

Platinum Shield Motorcycle Cover on MOTORESS

You might think motorcycles parked or stored in a garage / indoor are invincible to falling debris or dings from car doors – they’re not. A motorcycle cover is really necessary and even more so if you motorcycle has pricey extras or a custom paint job.

My uses over the years have ranged from:

  • Indoor parking to prevent dust; keep motorcycle out of sight (while parking in underground parking garage i.e. condo).
  • Outdoor / street protection against hail, wind and even snow especially when living in urban city core where indoor parking is scarce.
  • Temporary outdoor parking after a ride to the cottage or vacation destination.
  • During a motorcycle tour or camping to ensure bike is protected from the elements overnight and the guarantee of a dry seat in the morning.
  • As an added theft preventative – “out of sight out of mind”. Covers are a fantastic deterrent and will slow thieves down.

Platinum Quality Material Motorcycle Cover is Supreme

Throughout my riding years to present, I’ve owned and currently own a number of motorcycle covers. With that and my experience with motorcycle covers, it’s easy to highlight the “must have” features important not just to me, but to the average motorcyclist.

The quality Platinum Shield Motorcycle Cover offers the best solution for maximum weather protection. Made of a high quality woven polyester fabric with a reflective urethane coating that provides first-rate water and sun resistance. And the inside is lined with an ultra-soft fleece which will is kind to any motorcycle’s finish – just love that feature!

With the added cable and lock set, the gust strap wind protectors – this package is complete.

After testing out Car Cover’s “Platinum Shield Motorcycle Cover” I’ve without a doubt discovered the best cover I’ve ever owned or tried. It covers (unintentional pun) all the must have features and more.

No Side Mirror Pockets?

Platinum Shield Motorcycle Cover will accommodate your mirrors without pocketing them. Car Covers have engineered them out of the design because mirror pockets are unnecessary and are usually the first part of a motorcycle cover to deteriorate or rip. This ensures that you will get maximum durability from your motorcycle cover.

Quick Tips for Choosing a Motorcycle Cover

  1. Determine whether you want an indoor or outdoor cover. An indoor motorcycle cover is primarily designed to keep dust off the bike. It’s generally lightweight and less expensive than an outdoor cover. An outdoor cover is designed to protect motorcycles from weather, wind, debris, minor dents/scratches and in many cases theft. Outdoor motorcycle covers tend to have heat-resistant panels so the cover can be placed over hot exhausts, where an indoor “dust cover” would not have such a feature. An outdoor cover can be used both indoors and outdoors, but an indoor cover should not be used outdoors.
  2. Decide which features are important to you. Features such as good fit, lock grommets, waterproof, nonabrasive to your motorcycle body finishes, etc. The more the features, generally the higher the price. But it you have to pay a bit more initially, it will be worth it to get what you want the first time, so you won’t have to replace the cover after minimal use.
  3. Measure your motorcycle – the length, width, and height to have the correct measurements for your cover. Be sure to measure at its widest, longest, and highest points, including attachments, so that your new motorcycle cover will fit well. The motorcycle cover should not extend all the way to the ground. Your motorcycle needs a bit of airflow between its body and the cover, and a bit of clearance will allow the air to circulate.
  4. Check the sizing. Compare the dimensions of your bike with the dimensions of the cover you’re planning to buy. Purchase the larger size if your motorcycle requires a cover that is between two sizes. Many covers are sized based on the size of the engine; be sure to read the description closely to make sure it’s the proper size for your bike.
