Scooter covers
Stupid question time ..... I want to get a rain cover for my bike but how do I cover it without hot exhaust setting fire to everything. Bike parked on street away from house so not practical to come back when cool

Re: Scooter covers
most scooter covers are heat resistant and i have never had trouble with any good cover,c4aok wrote:Stupid question time .....

Re: Scooter covers
They must be heat resistant. I use mine with a hot AkrapoviÄ pipe and never had the slightest problem.

Re: Scooter covers
The simple answer is wait for half an hour for the exhaust to cool down before putting the cover on.

Re: Scooter covers
It is parked in central london so away from house.
Locking it up already a pain hence why I posted about chaining to a lamp post (separate post). Locking up and parking takes me longer than actual commute!

Re: Scooter covers
buy a cover that has the holes at front and back then you can run the chains thr it, they tend to have a central under body strap as standardc4aok wrote:It is parked in central london so away from house.
