![Dowco WeatherAll Plus Motorcycle Cover, Ratchet Attachment, Black Waterproof, Sportbike [52124-02]](https://images-na.ssl-images-amazon.com/images/I/51nx+AY6neL._AC_UL160_SR160,160_.jpg)
Mine was pretty much waterproof through some very, very heavy rain storms that came with some serious wind gusts.
PROS:
Very high quality at a premium price. Unlike a cheap cover, this one is fully lined and waterproof
The cover was thick and packs down to a basket ball size. It comes with a compression bag to help keep the size down. This was a XL sized one that fits a Adventure Bike with full-sized aluminum cases and also a full sized touring bike like the Harley ElectraGlide Limited and Honda Goldwing.
Colorfast - so far so good. Most covers starts to fade after a month in the sun. Its only been a month and it seems very colorfast. I'll update this comment later.
Rips - so far so good. Most cheap covers starts to "rip" with some cracks to the fabric after a month under the sun. This covers still look new after a month. It looked so "new" that it could be returned as new (which I obviously won't). Again I will update this over time.
Vents - Keeps the bike dry from condensation and it make identifying the left and the right of the cover easily as the single vent is only on the left side On my XL sized cover, it is larger in the front (to fit the fairing) and also larger in the back (to fit around the saddlebags/cases).
Waterproof. Yes it is waterproof. It's even waterproof from the pooling of the water over the low area on top the seat.
Lining: The felt lining prevents scratches on the paint and windshield
Heat resistant material: on the lower part of the cover prevents melting of the cover when put on a hot exhaust
CONS:
Size and weight. This cover is thick and packs HUGE. It came with a compression sack, but still packs to a basketball size. It is also HEAVY. you can't just "fling" it over the bike to put it on. It's great to use parked outside, but not as a day cover that needs to sit in the trunk when removed.
A second strap in the front near the front wheel lock hole would be nice. I find that the front of the cover, without a lock through the lockhole would sometimes pull up. Not a big deal, but would be nice to strap the front of the cover down through the front wheel instead of relying only on the elastic band in the cover to hold the cover over the front wheel.
CONCLUSION: Excellent cover at a premium price Probably the best cover you could buy for the money.. If you are looking for a all around high performance cover and have a nice bike like Harley/Goldwing/BMW that is parked outside, I would recommend this one. For a day cover to use on a trip or at work, I would recommend a Anglink Waterproof Motorcycle Cover (see my review on the Anglink Waterproof Motorcycle Cover)
