   Is the Ultra cover different from the Street Glide cover? Mine is cloth, doesn't have any ropes, has a sewn in Elastic band at the bottom and I sure wouldn't use it for outdoor protection in rain or bad moist weather. Like many others I use the I use the Exigent cover. Water proof, much lighter and smaller, easier to pack then the Harley cover.

I'll have to look at mine when I get home. I assumed it was an indoor cover as well and have never opened it. Was planning on buying an Oasis Day Cover or something that packs up smaller than the CVO cover before I head to Maggie Valley.

I have an '09 CUSE.......my cover says indoor use only 

[TinSpinner]

Turned out that mine is an indoor/outdoor cover as well. Never gave it notice until I read this thread, good call Joe!

Why would anyone use a cover that screams CVO on it?  (Come steal me)

I have a black cover made of parachute material. You know its a motor under it and possible a HD but that's it.

Exactly!!! Another reason a lot of us have gone to Exigent covers.

My thoughts too but as of now it's the only one I have and I'm leaving for MV in a couple of days. I think it will be okay for a CVO get together but not for a dark hotel parking lot with no other bikes around. Will order a generic cover soon for that reason and because the CVO cover is bulky and takes up too much space for other more valuable gear.

FYI - instructions say not to wash the cover....if you do, the cover will shed lint forever.  I washed the CVO cover from my old SERK and I had to throw it away.

Just got back from the rally in Ruidoso New Mexico & we used the 11 cvo cover every night, sheds water like plastic, worked like a charm & it is huge

[TinSpinner]

Used mine in Maggie Valley last weekend. Worked great but it may be the last time I use it. The darn thing is so huge and bulky and hard to get back in the pack that it will soon be replaced with a more compact version. If you're traveling 2 up and have much luggage there would be nowhere to store it. I was solo so I strapped it on the passenger seat but with a passenger it would require almost an entire saddlebag.

I have 4 of them and they all are still in the bag they came in.

I have two still in the bag, one for my 12 and one for my 13.  Yea, an out door cover but take up way to much room to use for traveling, which is why they are un used.

I asked my original question while I was at work this morning. I'm still trying to work out a way to get to Maggie Valley next week and was wondering about the cover that came with the bike. I hadn't looked at it since I threw it on a shelf the day I brought the bike home. When I saw Fired00d's reply with the picture I went out and found mine also had a tag on it. Turns out, it is an outdoor cover after all. 

I use cloth cover in the garage, specifically if I am having contractors walk in and out of the garage along with the kids. I got this one below for $50 at a dealer as they must not be big sellers.

It works here in FL to keep the sun and rain off the seat when I stop for lunch, etc. It folds up to a small package about the size of a brown paper lunch bag and the cover has the storage pouch sewn into the actual cover. It has holes for antennas and fits over stock windshield.

I got this one with my 2014 Breakout...  This one is specific for Softails.  Since it's different from yours, maybe some are for outdoor and other for indoor use depending on the bike

... My 2 cents...
