You can get them all over the place. Midas, Makro etc. Don't help too much though when your bike gets smacked by a truck from behind in the garage.

Corne, I have one at home that's been used maybe 3 times - if you're not looking to buy one you're welcome to borrow mine for the trip - it almost fits my GS (is the XL size), so should fit yours fine.

Alan thank you for the generous offer. If I don't get a cover before then I just might take you up on the offer ;-) If the covers are not too pricey I will probably buy one however I don't want to buy something that resembles a parachute or something ;-) I nicely fitted one for my 650 would do or maybe I'm just to picky again like always ;-) Corné Kloppers 0849130391 ckloppers@gmail.com

Hi Corne, No problem. It's the standard cover and with the height on the GS, it doesn't get all the way to the floor is all :) It fits into a little plastic packaging quite well and I think costs around R199 from Game.

Corne, I bought mine, an Oxford, from Linex Yamaha in Wale St. http://www.linexyamaha.co.za/ I'm afraid I can't remember what I paid but it wasn't too painful (I seem to remember about R100) and the cover fits perfectly. ''The world needs dreamers that DO!''

If you can dream it you can do it!
