Found a great cheap cover!!!

Post by mhardgrove »

When I picked up my battery on Amazon a few weeks back I also purchased a cover, thinking for the $14 it would be a temporary solution for keeping the scooter in the weather. I was expecting a tarp or something flimsy, but the cover I received was a silvery metallic covered medium weight cloth that's waterproof and the silvery metal has held up to the heat the few times I've covered it after letting it sit a few minutes after riding. I purchased a SMALL and it fits perfectly!!!! I'm really impressed and this thing appears to be better made than one I spent $50 when I purchased the scooter.

Hey you gotta love the price. Hopefully it will last a while. I just purchased this from ebay for about $20. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Yamaha-Scooter- ... 3c&vxp=mtr Since it will be for use while in the garage to keep the dust off I hope to get a years use out of it.

Excellent find and thanks for sharing. I looked it up and it has great reviews. Many of the reviewers state that same as you: great value and surprised at the quality.

Does anyone know if there is a difference between the silver fabric and blue fabric one below?

Hard to say but the reviews for the silver one are much better.

I know the silver one is fully waterproof and the fabric is totally covered in metallic covering. I would suspect the blue one may not be fully waterproof, but didnt buy that one. The small in the silver cover fits a Buddy perfectly.

I have that cover as well. So far so good. I also just purchased a Pella set cover off Ebay, very inexpensively.
