Check out Exigent indoor covers (www.exigentbikecovers.com). The dust cover is lightweight nylon, with an elasticised band around the bottom. Use them on my SESG and Wing. Get the one for longer bikes. Will accomodate the tour pack if you need. Had workman cutting tile outside of my open garage door. Dust everywhere but the bikes remained spotless.

Read someplace on this forum about a guy using his CVO cover in a un-heated concrete floor garage. Took the cover off in the spring and all his chrome was rusted......He thinks the cover does not breathe as well as we would expect.

Think that would be the same w/any type cover... BTW.. the indoor "CVO" cover is "breathable"....If you are going to put a cover on the bike it should be in a heat/humidity controlled environment to prevent damage. JMHO.

sometimes if you have a concrete floor and wooden roof condensation will form on the roof, in and around the environment and would be hard to get rid of.  The Heavy Cotton of the CVO covers is perfect for the bike.  One of the better manufacturers of covers worldwide is auto pyjama (no really) and there stuff is very similar if not the same to CVO - JMO

Cheers
