Ordered this cover for a Kymco Agilty 125 and it fits well. Seems a “one size fits most” configuration for scooters that size, with some extra room. Covers entire scooter, wheels and all. Has “Champion Covers” emblazoned across the front, which is good. That way I know which side is which when in a hurry.

The bike is kept outside in a carport so I can’t attest to how it stands up to the elements, but just sitting there I am happy with it. I like the large holes at the bottom. I can easily get a padlock through them to lock the cover on, and thats nice. The cover wraps under the entire scooter with room to spare. This makes it easy to latch it up nice and easy. I got this cover mostly to keep the bike hidden from the eyes of would be thieves. It certainly does that. Comes with a small bag the cover is easily folded and stuffed into, and this makes it easy to take along with me when i go to high crime parts of local cities. Scooter thieves often pass by bikes with covers, as they don’t know what is underneath. And with a small padlock attached and an alarm lock on the bike itself I would think it makes it too much trouble for them to bother with mine. Hopefully.

The best thing about this cover is its price, however. Its not Prima quality or anything like that so far as materials used, but its also not $50 – $60. When I went to a couple of powersport shops looking for a cover, they threw $50-$75 ones in my face not much different from this one or others. What they had for $30 was essentially a big, silver tarp. No elastic bottom, no area for a rear trunk, no way to lock or even latch it on the scoot. As said, an unsecured tarp. And they insisted that’s all that was available anywhere for such a “low” price. Yeah, right.

This cover is not as pretty as some, doesn’t have a sheen to it, and the material is thinner then a Prima or other well known brand, which makes it crinkle and wrinkle a bit. But its a good cover, and you get much more then you pay for at any powersports store for even $30. And it doesn’t have Prima or Honda or other name brand emblazoned across the sides giving a hint to would be thieves as to what might be hiding underneath. Good cover, right price, what more can you ask?
