Convert indoor bike cover size
« on: February 26, 2021, 11:36:06 PM »
I’d like to buy a fleecy-stretchy indoor bike cover to fit my 1980 Convert (factory bags but no windshield)  but sellers aren’t listing sizes, just what current Guzzi model it fits.  Does anyone know what current model may be similar to my V1000 or a T3 with bags?  Thanks.

I would be surprised if any cover lists Guzzi. You need to look at what a cover says it's for and see what that bike looks like. It also depends on the cover brand. A L from one might be a M or XL in another.

My Eldo with bags and shield will take a XL or 2XL depending on brand. I like the cover to go down to the rims so I would rather be loose than tight. I would GUESS a L or to be safe and a bit baggy, XL for you.

And as always, when in doubt, contact the Mfgr.

I got the waterproof one for my G5 from empirecovers.com and I'm very happy with it. I don't have bags in mine, but pretty sure it would still work.

One of the guys on the Loopframe group bought this one for his Eldo. https://www.amazon.com/dp/B08DHRXYYQ

He commented: "XL, 96 inches long. If you have bags go the next size up."
