Nelson-Rigg XL Motorcycle Half Cover — Waterproof, UV-Protected Cockpit & Seat Shield with Stuff Sack

Nelson-Rigg XL Motorcycle Half Cover is a compact, waterproof, UV-protected half-cover designed to shield seats, instrument clusters and upper bike areas from rain, sun and road elements while packing into a small reusable stuff sack.

This lightweight half-cover focuses protection where you need it most: the cockpit, seat and mounted electronics. Constructed from specially treated nylon with integrated taped seams and sewn elastic, it keeps moisture and harmful UV rays away from sensitive components while remaining small enough to tuck into saddlebags or trunks. Ideal for touring riders who want fast coverage without carrying a full-body cover, it slips on quickly and stays secure with built-in elastic bungees.

How well does this half cover protect against rain and moisture?

The Nelson-Rigg XL Half Cover features electronically sealed seams that prevent water penetration and a water-resistant nylon face to block rain and dew. It’s designed to keep seats and mounted gear dry during short stops or overnight exposure.

• 100% seam sealing prevents seepage through stitch lines
• Waterproof nylon repels heavy showers and morning dew
• Snug elastic hem and bungees reduce flap and lift in wind

Will it protect against sun damage and fading?

The fabric is specially treated to block over 99% of the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays, slowing color fade and surface degradation on exposed plastics, upholstery and electronics. Use it during long parking periods to limit direct sun exposure on dash components and seats.

• UV-treated nylon blocks most UVA and UVB radiation
• Protects vinyl seats, leather trim and instrument faces from sun harm
• Maintains flexible fabric performance after repeated outdoor use

How easy is it to install and store on the road?

Installation is straightforward: stretch the elasticized hem over the seat or front portion and secure the sewn-in elastic bungees where needed. When you’re ready to ride, the cover compresses into the included stuff sack small enough for most touring compartments.

• Elastic bottom ensures a snug fit across varied motorcycle shapes
• Sewn-in elastic bungees offer quick anchoring points for stability
• Packs into a compact reusable carry bag for convenient storage

Does this fit my touring bike like a Harley Ultra or Honda Goldwing?

The XL size is engineered to suit most large touring motorcycles, including common frames and saddle configurations found on Harley-Davidson Ultra and Honda Goldwing models. Its flexible design targets cockpit and seat coverage rather than full-body fit, so confirm dimensions for complete assurance.

• XL sizing accommodates large seats and instrument clusters
• Flexible shaping adapts to windshields and fairing contours
• Designed for universal fit across many touring platforms

Who is this for: Riders who prioritize rapid, targeted protection for seats, GPS units and cockpit gear—especially touring motorcyclists who need a space-saving solution for wet or sunny conditions. If you want reliable shielding for quick stops, overnight parking or when storage is limited, this Nelson-Rigg half cover offers a practical balance of waterproofing, UV resistance and compact portability without the bulk of a full motorcycle cover.
