    i would say probably not martin. the tail /seat unit is shorter on 08 onwards by a fair bit and the cover i have on mine has to be stretched over the tail unit and it is tight and thats the correct cover for my bike.

    That's what I thought, the only cheap ones that ever seem to pop up are for the 08-11
    Cheers for your help

    I just put a nice clean cotton sheet over my bike and let it drape over it, keeps the just off and of course air can blow under it to keep it ventilated. Why do you need a cover to just keep dust off, i can understand for outside, but not inside.

    To be honest it's collected quite a bit of dust with me being off the road this year and massive cobwebs, being completely honest I'm a bit of a girl when it comes to spiders!
    If when next riding a turanchula crawls out the fairing and up my arm I would probably jump off the bike at 160mph!!!
