its like the same type of material as an umbrella. well i did a lil test and threw some water over it and surely it glided off. rain was my main reason for buying it but also covering it while im out and about so no one really notices it (theives) cuz the cover is not to flashy. its not water proof but reviews on it say that it holds up well.
Heres my bike w my backrest:
Heres a front view w the cover: fully covers the front
from the rear w the backrest: just shows a lil bit of rubber and a lil of the swingarm and rotor...no biggy
here it is laid out ready to fold:
here it is folded up ready to go in that little silver bag it comes with:
FINALLY this is it under the seat:
seat fits normal no need to push down really hard: had to get the corbin in there
i havent used it yet but my only fears are that it will melt from the exhaust pipes under the seat and while its on the bike after a long ride....i have CF m4's and they honestly dont get that hot they only feel warm bc i ride from my house to work about >20 miles n its not burning hot.. i guess just the inner metal lip of the exhaust get hot..but i shall see..you get wat u paid for!
As for the pipes under the seat im still wondering... anyone have any suggestions or input??
Is this a bad idea??Will it melt??
Your responses are greatly appreciated!:thumbup:
