Thanks Charlie,

I need one for my 70 Ambo that has no windshield and another for my 69 that
has a shield. I suppose they come in standard sizes....one type fits all
kind of thing.

Really all I need them for is to cover them up as they sit outside the
office during the day. Around these parts the less intense sun they get
sitting idle the better. Not to mention it keeps the birds from targeting it
:-)

By the way...did you say you were going to make the Open House? Any other
Loopers going? I am staying at the Holiday Inn Express in Farquay something.

...Ian

Hi Ian,
Haven't had to buy any covers yet, I keep winning one as a prize
each year at
a local classic bike event. The one I've won twice is the Dowco
Legend. Dowco
describes it as "inexpensive coverage" (the average retail is
around $30-40
depending on size, but on sale in moto-mag ads for $28-36) and
I've found them
to be good enough for me. They're water-resistant nylon, red and silver in
color, and don't take up much space when stowed on the bike.
Great to cover
the bike during the night at rallies or in the garage. I have a
long padlock
that I loop (there's that word!) through the grommets along the bottom to
discourage evil doers and to keep the wind from possibly taking
off with it. I
also won a Dow Protector one year. Nice, heavy, cotton cover -
but it's for
indoor use only! Oh well, need a cover for those stationary BMWs
anyway. :-)
Cheers,

Charlie
