Bike Cover

[Briggsy]

I surprisingly failed to buy a cover for a PCX yesterday as every shop bar one did not sell them and that one that did, did not have the right size in stock.

 

Where can I buy one in the Pattaya area? It doesn't have to be downtown Pattaya. I will travel anywhere.

Best look on Lazada or Shopee instead of traipsing all over the place.

Thanks. Got it at Big C.

 

(I actually find Shopee and Lazada quite problematic but that is clearly a failing of me since so many use them happily. Perhaps I just need to use them more to fully understand the ins and outs.)

Glad you found something suitable

It's sometimes nice to see the product "in the flesh"  as it were at a physical shop

I would always do that for clothes and shoes.

 

The bike covers I bought online from Lazada  fitted perfectly  were quite inexpensive ( should have known ! ) and were very good while they lasted...which  unfortunately wasn't as long as I had hoped..they succumbed after about a year to the intense UV ( I guess) and started disintegrating.

 

On the other hand I have been using an old car seat cover fake leather

(only covers half a bike) for years and it has lasted amazingly well.

 

One thing to watch out for if covered for a long time  insects and rodents making nests   also things tend to go a bit mouldy.
