I've used them side by side with a OEM cover and without question they work!! Great Product!

If you need one let me know and I'll get one for you.

From what all my customers say who have ordered them from us they love them!

I think they are a nicer cover because they adjust to almost any handlebar configuration you can have where the OEM ones sometimes won't work with risers and other add-ons. They seem to be a very solid product and I know a couple friends that have over 10,000 trailer miles and they are still working good. They do take care of them, washing and cleaning them when needed.

Hope that helps.

They are great... 2 things

1. take it in and have more straps sewn on ,
2. have help the 1st time you put it on...superrrrrrrrr tight

I've been considering one of these as well...

Just stretched a new one on last month. Very happy with the way it conforms to the higher handlebars, windshield and rack. Trailers very well. Set your side strap buckles around the fuel tank to your fueling side and it is easy to stretch it up to catch the handle bar end to reach under and fuel.

Best cover ever. Will surely pay for istelf with resale value on sled.

The cover when new should be put on the sled and left fully installed to all the cover to stretch. A couple uses and it will be much easier to install.

The waterproof feature is enough for me to say it's worth every penny. Secondly, the versatility is awesome!

I bought 2 Skinz covers in '08, they still look and function as new.

..

had my skinz cover on my sled for 3 trailer rides before all the straps broke and one of the plastic pieces beat the heck outta my sled.(and Ihad them on tight).so you definatly need more straps .. . no fuel door either..and as of now waiting on a reply back from them on cover warranty havent heard Boo!! but I really want to like it the fabric there made of is awsome..

I talked to Skinz this fall about why they don't have fuel doors and the reason is because that would interfere with the structural integrity of the cover. The cut for the door would be a weak point. Makes sense to me!

I love mine and have had no problems! I like the fact that it's only 3 straps too. as for refueling, I let the rear strap loose and the cover comes off to the tank, refuel, pull it back over the rear, connect the one strap and, done. IMO its easier then unzipping the fuel flap and then trying to watch the fuel go in through the little fuel flap

Love mine. Worth every penny.
