Product Information
Full details
The Oxford Aquatex Motorcycle Cover in Yellow is an essential accessory for motorcycle owners looking to safeguard their bike from environmental elements like rain and dust, both indoors and outdoors. It offers a balance of robust, double-stitched protection and portability, making it ideal for daily use; however, while it is highly effective against moisture and debris, it is not designed to withstand extreme high-heat exhaust temperatures immediately after a long ride.

FAQs
Is the cover safe to put on a hot engine?
No, you must allow your motorcycle engine and exhaust to cool down completely before covering to prevent heat damage to the fabric.
Can I use this for long-term outdoor storage?
The Aquatex is designed for weather resistance, but for extended long-term storage in harsh climates, we recommend a more heavy-duty or breathable specialized cover.
How do I choose the right size?
Measure your bike's length, width, and height, including any accessories like mirrors or top boxes, and compare these to the specific size guide for the Aquatex range.
Is the material breathable?
While it is waterproof, it is not fully breathable; therefore, it is best to avoid covering a wet bike for long periods to prevent moisture entrapment.
How do I clean the cover?
Use a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid abrasive scrubbers or washing machines as these can damage the waterproof PU coating.
Troubleshooting
Cover blows off in high wind
Ensure the belly strap is pulled tight and the elasticated hem is properly tucked under the wheels.
Moisture buildup inside the cover
Ensure the motorcycle is completely dry before covering and that the cover is used in a well-ventilated area to prevent condensation.
Cover material feeling stiff
Gently clean with lukewarm water to remove salt or grit buildup, then store in a shaded, cool area.
Pros and Cons
Pros
- Excellent waterproofing thanks to the double PU coating
- Highly visible yellow color for increased awareness
- Reinforced double-stitched seams increase longevity
- Includes a convenient zipped carry bag for portability
- Secure fit with both elastic hem and belly strap
Cons
- Not heat-resistant; must wait for exhaust to cool before covering
- Requires careful sizing selection for specific bike models
- Lacks integrated security holes for heavy chains compared to premium models
Setup, Compatibility & Care
To achieve the best fit, drape the cover from the handlebars toward the rear of the bike. Pull the elasticated bottom around the wheels and fasten the belly strap underneath the engine/frame to prevent wind uplift.
Care Instructions:
- Cleaning: Wash with a soft sponge and lukewarm water to remove grime. Avoid harsh detergents or high-pressure washers which may compromise the PU coating.
- Drying: Always allow the cover to dry completely before folding it back into the zipped carrier to prevent mold or mildew growth.
- Compatibility: Ensure you match the cover size (e.g., Medium, Large, or XL) to your specific motorcycle dimensions, accounting for add-ons like top boxes or tall windscreens.
