Oxford Aquatex and Rainex Covers comparison

I've been using the Oxford Aquatex covers on both my bikes for the past few years and the one covering the Versys has been tearing. I've bought an Oxford Rainex to replace it. In this video I compare the two and review how the Oxford Aquatex has held up after around 18 months with two winters in southern England.

Which one would you say is better for an outdoor motorcycle. All the covers I’ve had so far leaked water.

[@nogaragerequired]

The rainex has been the best for me so far. It’s been holding up nicely.

my bike is garaged but there are little leaks here and there and it gets pretty cold.... i can get a good deal on a rainex. with it being garaged and mostly out the elements would a stormex be over kill? considering i can get a rainex at £32. cheers

[@nogaragerequired]

if it’s in the garage you can go with the lighter Rainex. it was the wind that really tore that up for me.

hi, im a beginner rider (skill wise and "hardware wise), would this fit on a ninja 1000sx with both panniers and a top box installed?

[@nogaragerequired]

If you go to the Oxford website, they have all the dimensions of each cover size on there and you can check. I found that it fits the top box but not to panniers.

Any updates after 6montha of use? I'm looking for a new cover to buy

[@nogaragerequired]

After 6 months it is still as good as the first day. I’ll do an update after a full winter to really see how it fairs but so far so good.

how to easy buckle oxford motor cover !? It is very difficulty. You must go from side to side...

[@nogaragerequired]

It’s easy enough to do it all from one side. The buckle can be reached from one side by reaching underneath.

Are these OK to fit on a wet bike?

[@nogaragerequired]

I’ve been only putting them on a dry bike in case so I can’t say for certain but there is some airflow under the cover.

[@omerta2002]

@@nogaragerequired Thanks for the reply. I'm leaning towards the Stormex as it seems this might be the better longterm value overall.

[@GBMatthew07]

You own two bikes but no garage, yeah that makes sense.

[@Miguel-hw8hj]

opinions are like arse holes.... everyone's got one.
