Well, my Ebay skills were unable to find them, so they might not be around. Don't you still have to wait for the bike to cool before you put the cover on even with the heat shields? Or am I completely wrong in that regard?

Cover Central on Ebay sells covers that have heat shield areas sewn in to protect them from hot exhausts. I have one for my Drifter, and have ordered several over the years for friends (none in the last 4 years so don't know if they are still around) and everybody has been happy with them. They also store in a small Ditty bag so travel well; don't take up a lot of room. Just a thought....

So I have a quick question about covers. I'm looking to get a half cover for my 800. I have a tall windshield, and also a trunk of sorts with the 2 up seat. It's roughly the same size as the stock 2 up with a luggage rack and bag on the luggage rack. Anyone have any suggestions? I'm not opposed to a full cover, but a half cover would seem to make more sense since it will avoid the hot exhaust. I'm wanting something for when it's parked outside at work to keep the seat cool, and because it's nice to keep everything out of the sun.

Thanks
