To take on the rally, I'm looking at the Nelson-Rigg 1/2 cover. It folds up nice and small.

I'm thinking with my CBR mirrors on the '92... I will need a large size.....Any thoughts?

Over the years, I have learned (the hard way) to place a folded clean towel over my windscreens to prevent scratching.

I have the Geza cover. I really like it. It too is small when off the bike. It works better than you think to trailer the bike with. Not cheap though.

I have a CoverMax half cover, size large, model 10-7522. I ride to work every day and use the cover on the rainy ones. Usually have large soft paniers on (not so in the pics). Works well with or without the luggage. Looks similar to the NR, but has a hook and loop strap on each side that I attach to the shift linkage and the rear brake lever. CBR mirrors are not a problem. Think I paid about $27 for it three years ago. After lots of use in many bad storms it's still in good shape. It's about 12" long wadded up in the handy carrying bag. The pic is a little skewed and makes it look longer.
