I just want to share pics and my experience with this cover!!! first thing you need to know is that it takes forever to get your cover. I ordered on 2/02/12 and just got mine today. Also don't expect a quick reply whe you email rideaddict.com to ask a question............................. Ok!! so, as far a the cover goes..... I have to say that the:
quality: this thing is thick and seems to be great quality. you'll have to put your bike in the sun to get it hot and all the wrinkles out.
color: All of you that own a white 09 know how hard it is to even match the paint if you decide to get a fairing or your inner panels painted. So, don't expext the cover to be a perfect match. as far as the stripes go, I think they are a perfect color match and align great.!!
magnetic tank bag compatibilty: I know a lot of the guys that have a bagster cover say they work fine. In my case my joe rocket manta doesn't have magnets that strong. due to being a small bag maybe?? anyways..... when I put my bag on, I wasn't happy with how it felt. I ended up putting a bungee hidden under the bag attached to the rear cover's attachment points just for my peace of mind.
So, In conclusion: even though the manufacturing and delivery time are a deal killer(for us that ride all year)I'm happy with the cover overall.! I hope I can get many years out of it and eventually I'll be getting a new tank bag. Also, I think I'm gonna switch back to black seats since now I have 3 different shades of white next to each other because of the luimoto seat covers.
Here are the pics!!!!!! What do you guys think????
