Who has the factory cover for the bike? Is it really worth the $90 or is an aftermarket just as good. Just want something to cover it when in the garage for the winter....and maybe when we go on a couple of trips.

If you want to travel with it, buy a light weight cover that packs down small. I bought an OEM cover and it took up too much space for travel. I bought an aftermarket cover and have used it on 2 bikes now. Never touch the OEM cover any more.

I have a tour pack on my F6B and bought the cover for my previous bike years ago. The height of your windshield will also play a role in the fitment.

Check this one out. The fitment guide includes Harleys and Goldwings.

It comes in different color combinations. A lighter color combination may keep some of the heat off of your bike underneath if you park it out in the sun.

I had one of those $20 nylon covers that I took with me. They are great for keeping dust and people off. I also have a "Dowco Gaurdian" that' I use at home. Really well made and waterproof. Buy the largest they have. The one I have fits nice and snug . It will cover a full wing.

I have the factory cover. Put it on twice. Snug fit and probably OK for longer term storage but I'm not a fan. 50 bucks and it's yours.

I use an old one from a GW I had. Works except for the antenna. Can't beat the price.

I brought a OEM Honda off here for 50 bucks, delivered....... Fits like a glove, has zippers so you can get in the bags, Honda & F6B logos on it. Great cover.

So the factory Honda cover fo the F6b will work on the Deluxe with tall screen. Brochure says it does, just can't find any information that it fits with passenger backrest.
