How to Choose a Motorcycle Cover Size for Mirrors and Luggage
A motorcycle cover should fit the whole parked bike, not just match a size label. Mirrors, tall windscreens and luggage can turn an otherwise suitable cover into a tight fit. Start with measurements before choosing XL, 2XL or 4XL.
Measure your motorcycle as it will be stored
Park securely on a level surface and let the engine and exhaust cool. Measure from the furthest forward point to the furthest rearward point, including any luggage that will stay attached. Then note the widest point across mirrors or panniers and the height of the screen or top box. Keep the measurements together when comparing covers.
A cover that reaches over a bare motorcycle may not reach equally far down once a top box is installed. Do not assume that ordering one size larger guarantees the right shape.
Understand this cover's size guidance
For our 210D motorcycle storage cover with carry bag, the supplier gives these suggested motorcycle-length limits:
| Size | Suggested bike length |
|---|---|
| XL | Up to approximately 76.8 inches (1.95 m) |
| 2XL | Up to approximately 82.7 inches (2.1 m) |
| 4XL | Up to approximately 98.4 inches (2.5 m) |
These are bike-length recommendations, not measured cover dimensions. The supplier does not provide a complete width-and-height fit chart. If your motorcycle has a tall screen, wide mirrors or luggage, length alone cannot establish compatibility.
Storage habits matter too
The black cover uses 210D polyester taffeta and includes a cloth storage bag. It can help keep everyday dust, bird droppings and debris off a parked motorcycle. Although the supplier describes rain protection, it supplies no tested waterproof or UV rating. Do not treat the cover as a sealed weatherproof enclosure.
Allow a wet motorcycle and a damp cover to dry before extended storage. Fit the cover only after hot components have cooled, secure it as shown in the product photos, and remove it before riding or transporting the bike. Periodically check for trapped moisture.
Before you order
Confirm your bike's full length, account for accessories, and review the product photos alongside the size guidance. The package includes one cover and one cloth bag; choose your size on the motorcycle cover product page.
