I live in New Jersey where it rains a lot and wanted to buy a cover so that I can bring my stryker to my apartment. (There is no garage so it will be staying outside) Does anybody have any suggestions for a cover that will fit?

Do a google search for water proof covers.

Yea I was looking at a lot of different ones and just wanted to see if anybody had any recommendations. My main concern is getting the correct size.

I have the same issue. I have one for home and for work. There are lots of covers available. Just make sure you get a large enough one, the Stryker is a long bike. I have the short Yamaha windshield and Hardstreet Sixer bags on my bike. I purchased a Nelson-Rigg defender X-large cover and it was too tight. I purchased a decent quality x-large no-name cover at my local automotive store and it fits much better.

Great, EXACTLY what I wanted to hear! I was about to buy that exact one. Is your no-name one 100% waterproof?

Thanks

My bike has been in storage since October so I going strictly from memory but I am pretty sure it kept my bike dry. I thought well enough of this cover to buy a second one to replace the Nelson Rigg. I also had a plastic one but I got rid of it right away. I had thought the exhaust had cooled down enough but I burned a hole in it. The Nelson Rigg is a better cover but for me it wasn't $25.00 better. Things to look for are: an elasticized bottom, heat resistant panel for the pipes, ventilation to let moisture out. a panel on the front to protect the windshield, and strapping on the bottom to keep it place on windy days.

I just bought a Rhino-shelter motorcycle cabana. I live in a apartment complex also (in Massachusetts) Depending on what website you go to, I have seen the cost from $388 to $400. I love it. Go to my garage...I have some pics of it posted there.

Do those Rhino covers have a vent system built in!

It has a vent on each side which can be velcro closed, or rolled up. It works great, and I think is well worth the money. It comes with expansion bolts if you want to bolt it right into the driveway, or you can bolt it to a 4x8 piece of plywood. If you use the plywood method, once you park the bike inside, it's immovable.

You should change your link so that it shows the saved garage as opposed to letting everyone edit it (like it does currently).

You should ask 11stryker to edit his quote of you for the same reason.

I ended up buying a great cover for $32 including shipping. It has poured and the cover did its job perfectly. Even comes with an elastic bottom, carrying bag, clips, and cable/lock. Fits the stryker's length perfectly but does have extra room in height. Also fits my fathers dyna wide glide with saddle bags, large windshield, back seat rest, highway bars etc.
