Default Motorcycle Cover?

Anyone use a cover? I no longer have a garage to park the KLX (moved to an apartment) and want to get a cover for it to keep the bird SH.. off it. Nearly every morning they've pooed in the ignition, on the mirrors, grips etc etc.

I tried a $30 cover from Advanced Auto that was a one size fits most (up to 1500cc dressers) and it dwarfed the KLX. The ends with elastic didn't even touch the bike!

So anyone have a brand/size cover they use?

I picked up one of these off amazon for less than $30 shipped. It fits well and does a good job keeping the dust and the bird-doo off, but isn't much for rain protection. Coincidentally, I'm moving to a place with a garage at the end of the month so I'm not too concerned about that anymore.

Rain protection isn't a big concern considering its a dual sport, just keeping the birds from using it for target practice is the main thing. The cover has to stay on well though.

Here's a pic of it on my bike. Itdoesn't fit perfectbecause our bikes are so tall with the mirrors, but it stays on fine and does the job, just don't expect a dry seat in the morning if it rained the night before.
