    What's everyone's recommendations with regards to a decent, but not an arm and a leg, scooter cover.
    Just having a quick look, Halfords have a couple of Oxford ones for £20 & £25
    What are your thoughts people ??
    Thanks
    Sean

    £20-£30 sound about right , just make sure they have re-enforced tabs so you can secure them and not find in the morning they have torn through and are flapping round like an old tent .

    a trick we used to use on old tarps was to rubberized glue old inner tube cut offs to the corners and likes then use one of those hole punch tools that put eyelets in stuff. a couple cheap bungie cords and thread one hook through a eyelet then with some man pliers closed the hook up so its kinda a perma fixed. then when comes to fitting we just used to cross hatch the other bungie hooks X fashion

    Don't get one what stands out. I know it sounds stupid but having a colour what hides away and don't catch the eyes. like he said above, fine one with clamps, picks etc where you can clamp the cover down firm. i always wake up and find that mine has blown over in next doors neighbours garden lol

    We've lost a few bbq covers over the years !!
    I think I'll go for one of the Oxford ones, they seem to be pretty good quality [emoji106]

    I've got an Oxford one, that clips underneath and a SIP one that hooks underneath.
    The oxford one is more secure and more discreet. I prefer the SIP one because it has breathing vents.

    if you cover your scooter and park it on yellow lines, can they remove the cover to check the reg

    Got this one, it has holes at the front so you can use a lock, it has a strap/clip that passes and fastens underneath so it won't end up going the same way as a few bbq covers [emoji106]
