Oxford Stormex Bike cover

Post by Tyke »

Does anyone have an Oxford Stormex bike cover, and if so do you reckon it'd fit an '05 Fazer Thou?
They've got them with £35 off at http://www.bigbikebook.com

I think thats the cover i've got for my bike ! Its not actually that great coz if there's heavy rain it will still soak through and stays really soggy around the bottom...

If like me you'll still use the bike in bad weather and take it off bike when wet there is nowhere to really put it and it ends up just soaking thru and then you have to dry it on the radiator !!

More hassle than its worth i reckon !

I've got a stormex you can try on if you like.

I'd agree about the soggyness at the bottom, but mine's dry everywhere else, no problem with soak through (sorry gixxerbabe). I used to shove it in the car when I took it off until I got a garage.

Not sure about the bike size (think its a medium), but it fits my SV650S nice and snuggly. Will check out the label when i'm in the garage next.

Plus, don't be fooled by the sale price. I got mine for £45 last July :-)

How much? and does it come with complementary bricks? :I can't believe it's not butter!
