ST1300 bike cover
« on: November 14, 2023, 08:27:24 PM »
Hi all.
I got my bike sooner that expected and haven't got an undercover solution sorted yet.

Can anyone suggest a bike cover (brand and model) that fits an ST1300 with the factory topbox, please?

I rried a RJAYS one, (  'large bike with rack')   but it was  too small.
TIA.

This is the one that I used and fit the ST1300 with the Honda topbox:   

Rjays Bike Cover  (Make sure to order the BC6 - XLarge)

And here is a link that shows some pictures of it on my ST :thumbs

Thanks heaps, Shiney.
The pictures are particularly helpful - looks like a very good fit on the ST.  Back to the dealer asap.  My bike doesn't look anything like it's 18yrs and I hope to keep it that way!

When I had mine parked outside I would go through at least one of these from the same place as Shiney got his per year, the sun destroys them, but other than that they are the good

I ordered the one as suggested by Smiley. 
Picked it up yesterday, just removed the borrowed one and put it on the bike today. 
Really happy with how it fits.  Nice coverage from the front wheel - all the bodywork and with top box in place it tucks pretty neatly under the panniers.  It's just a little small to go over the mufflers, but that doesn't worry me - means I shouldn't have to wait until they're fully cold to put it on.

Do plan to make a shelter/put up a shed to house it properly but that might take a while as will require some front yard landscaping.

Pics below.

Thanks for the help/feedback everyone!

I'm in the process of doing something similar for Stefan's goldwing.  It's taking a while because the builder is taking its time.
