So you have just made the last ride for the season. You've checked the oil and drained the fuel from the tank. You place all of your motorcycle gear in the closet, after treating it with leather treatment. You have hand washed the motorcycle from top to bottom. You have dismantled the intake, and place cotton toweling in the carburetor to keep out any pesky rodents. The battery has been unbolted and placed on a shelf for the winter. Every thing is set for it's winter storage. Then it hits you. You forgot the motorcycle cover. Again!.
Last year you had to spend hours cleaning all of the dust off of the motorcycle so that you could go out for your spring ride and break the new oil in. What to do now? Well, not wanting to go through the same fiasco as last year, you decide to head down to your local Harley shop and buy a motorcycle cover. You did remember to bring the credit card right? The average cost for a quality motorcycle cover from a local dealer can run as much as $350.00.
Finding a solution on-line could help you out significantly. By saving money on your cover, you can afford to buy that new motorcycle luggage set you have had your eye on. When looking for a motorcycle cover on-line, be sure to pay attention to the details of the cover. Does it guarantee weatherproofing? Does one size fit all? Does the motorcycle cover have any features that another might not have? Is it heat retardant to prevent damage from the engine and super hot exhaust? You should ask all of these questions when buying a motorcycle cover.
The finer points of a purchase agreement should be read ass well. Often times a customer will have to pay for shipping charges if the product is to be returned for an exchange or refund. Does the website offer free insurance? Does the website have a return policy if it doesn't fit? Is the website you are buying from reputable? Can you find and speak to a real person of the company when you call their sales and support hot line? Do they have a sales and support hot line?
While you are waiting for the cover to arrive, be sure to get a tracking number from the company you bought the motorcycle cover from. Do they offer a tracking number from a reputable company like UPS, or FedEx? Think before you buy. Check out the company and do some research to ensure that you will have a pleasant purchase. There are plenty of resources available for the on-line purchaser to check out a company to find out if they are reputable.
Though you may be apprehensive about purchasing a motorcycle cover on-line, you can follow these helpful tips to be sure that your purchase is a success. You might even consider buying from the same company, and just finding out that they are the best solution for all of your motorcycle accessories needs.
