OK, I've searched all over the place and haven't found the ideal motorcycle cover. There are lots around, and some have useful features and some are... crap!
So I'm thinking of getting a batch made in China and seeing how they sell. I've taken a look at a number available around the world and am looking at producing a higher-cost, but durable item. I'm not looking at the '£9.99 melt onto your exhaust and disappear in a high wind' type...
Here's what seems to be popular (although none seem to have all these features):
Thanks!

Here's what seems to be popular (although none seem to have all these features):
- Fully waterproof
- Breathable (or weatherproof air vents)
- Strong construction
- UV-resistant
- Reflective strips (? in seams)
- Different sizes available (and possibly colours, too?)
- Largest size to allow for panniers/top-box
- Elasticated bottom hem
- Heatproof lower part (MUST NOT melt on hot exhaust pipe)
- One or two bottom fixing straps (must be strong - withstand high wind)
- Cutouts at front to accept locking chain, etc.
- Carry bag to pack away cover
Thanks!
