Looked at Triumph and they don't sell any covers for my Roadster or any other Rocket for that matter. Anyone know of any good aftermarket ones? Thanks in advance.

I have had a Nelson-Rigg cover on my '09 R3T since I bought it....spends most of the nites outside under the cover....very happy with it....

I have both my bikes garaged too. Problem being when it rains a lot (which it does in Fla.) when I open the garage door water drips thru onto the bikes.

OH! NO! You poor fellow!!!
 

I too spent 4 years working auto theft in a large city and I seriously doubt it has anything to do with the cover -
According to Consumer Reports:
"Among stolen bikes, Honda is clearly the favorite, with 9,082 thefts making up 20 percent of the total. Yamaha (16 percent), Suzuki (15 percent), and Kawasaki (11 percent) follow in this popularity contest. Notably Harley-Davidson accounted for just 8 percent of thefts, despite being the dominant brand in the United States. BMW and Victory notably accounted for less than one percent of thefts, with Ducati and Triumph at one percent."
 

Nice Cover...er trailer. The Harley logo has got to go though!

YA I have to find a Triumph one to cover it. I only used it on one trip. Should have and might use it more. I just like riding to much to trailer. Still its nice to use as a garage for the bike even has electrical hook up and the fridge keeps refreshments mighty cold
 

Park the motor outside and it would also make an awesome drinking bar with a few stools!
Fridge have room for some Bulleit Kentucky Whiskey???
 
@1olbull Around here in NOVA, the little scooters are the biggest stolen two-wheelers, at least the news tells me so.
In Denver back in 2007, the flashier one was with their cars or bikes, seemed to be the cue for thievery. Number one car brand stolen was Toyota followed by Hondas. For joyrides it was Cadillac. My police buddy thinks that the reason Harleys were stolen so much is similar to why the Caddies were taken, because they have a known security system and kids have to prove themselves capable of taking them to get into a gang or to prove they can be productive in some sort of chop operation. He is the one who told me not to be flashy with my VMAX since that is what triggers some psychology to take. I went with a non-descript cover for that bike because of his recommendation.

Doesn't appear to have much in the way of venting. Moisture might accumulate under there, especially if you put it over a hot bike.

The Dowco cover has a vent and a zipper for ease of installation as well as removal.
