Bonita Springs, FL | I have used the Exigent rain covers for all the bikes I have ever owned. They fold up very small and worked well. They do not make a cover for the Vision and have no plans to in the future. Does anyone know a source for a cover that fits, is rain proof and small enough to carry on long trips.
Thanks. |

New Bohemia, VA | There is a cover for $149 in the catalog or your dealer. I use a $30.00 off the shelf and poke a hole for the antenna until I get a shed built for the Vision. |

Prescott Valley, AZ | The cover made by Victory for the Vision works fine. You'll need to use a bungy cord or something to hold it tight under the bottom of the bike but other than that it fits perfectly and works on either the Street or Tour model. All you do for the Tour model is unzip a pocket where in lies the attached cover for the trunk. It's a bit spendy at $150.00 but you get what you pay for, and, it REALLY looks good with the logo on the front of the cover just below the windshield, no question what is hiding under the cover

Memphis | I agree with Bearcat. My wife bought me the Victory cover and it looks great. It won't pack down as small as you'd like. (Would probably take up an entire saddlebag.) The only other issue is putting the cover on while the bike is still hot. Even though the bottom part has a high temp fabric that sits against the exhaust on both sides, the cover will hit the right side bend of the pipes where they come out of the engine. This is above the high temp fabric and will melt a small crisscross pattern on the pipes if they are still hot. Did not melt through the cover but it took me a while to figure out where the discoloration on the pipes was coming from. I thought it was from my riding pants or something else.
Another small option is a partial cover that goes from the bottom of the windshield to the back of the seat. Would cover the dash and other stuff like GPS, etc. A U-Glide buddy of mine has one and really likes it. Packs down to nothing. |

Regina Saskatchewan Canada | I also have the Victory made cover for the Vision and it fits very well, appears to be very good quality and looks great. Unfortunately it does not pack up real small. If you got it rolled good and packed in the carrying bag that comes with it, it will take up half a saddle bag.

Santa Maria CA | Just bought my Midnight Cherry Tour Premium two week ago. Have 1500 miles on her already. Bought a cover off of ebay from Champion Covers. Bought a XXL, that fit a GL1800 Goldwing. You can get a gray, black or blue. Covers the Vision quit well and came with a lock and cable, packs down into a small bag. Cost about $45.00 including shipping and tax. Ordering a second cover for the wifes Goldwing. Love the bike more and more.

Bonita Springs, FL | Thanks, just ordered the Champion cover. This website has been a tremendous asset and can't image how much better it will get as more people get their Visions. |

Dale, Indiana | I like my Rain Cover even though it would be a bit bulky for travel.
Fits nice, and it looks like there's a monster hiding under it!
Use it in my garage because the stupid cat gets in every once and a while and thinks the seat is nice. (Told kids if cat scratches my bike it's going to be BBQ'd for dinner!)
Dealer throw it in on the deal so the price was right.
