Fire....Since you did buy one, did you use it while travelling with the MH?
If so, how did it work out? Did it create any issues/concerns to the MC while in motion? I know you said it "touched" the MC, but overall did it perform okay and cause NO damage to the MC?
Was it just the fact that it was advertised that it wouldn't touch the bike an issue?
Just trying to become informed....
Flanz,
No Sir, I didn't travel one inch with that cover in place. Because it touched the painted surfaces in so many points, and even a couple of chrome garnishments here and there, I knew for a fact that all those touch points would have done some intense harm, by the time we drove our first 100 miles. So, to answer your question, nope, the rig never even pulled out of our home with it on.
As for the cover you do see on there, It's made by "Ultrgard" and, it's manufactured as a travel cover for a bike of that size and nature. It's real thick and doesn't flop around in the breeze/currents/turbulence back there. That cover doesn't move one micro-inch. It's a bit of a pain to install but, it's the best that can be done, in that kind of a situation.
