Which Oxford Cover?

Hi,

I'm thinking of getting a cover for my PCX to leave on when its parked at work.

Does anyone on here have one of the Oxfords covers?

They do 2 ranges - one for bikes and one for scooters, but given the length of a PCX compared to my old Yamaha BWS 50 i'm not sure if the scooter ones will be big enough?

Does anyone have any experience of them?

JDC covers are probably a better option, I bought one of their ultimate heavy duty ones for my new bike.
Quality is way better than Oxford.

If you just want something to hide the scooter rather than to be 100% waterproof, you can have my old Oxford one for free.
Its a lightweight one and packs down really small.

Hey GN2, I don't check the Forza forum out too often, so I may have missed it, but did you purchase a new bike, or still considering/looking? If so, which one?

Deposit paid and will be taking delivery of a brand new shiny red SV650 in a few weeks.

I'm waiting for the new "17" registration which doesn't get issued till 1st March.
Hopefully some better weather will arrive soon after...

Looking good. Congrats on the purchase. That ain't no PCX or Forza. ;)

I was just buying parts for the scooter, and while I was looking at the guy's GS500 he tells me I should stop trying to make my scooter go fast and get a Gladius or SV650. :lol:

They look but yes its really just to hide it while sitting outside work.

That's a generous offer on the Oxford cover - whereabouts are you in the NE?
