Would you say this fits my hornet even tho it doesnt go to the bottom? Its a recommended medium for the hornet but also the mirrors dont sit in the right place. If i got a large wouldnt it just be longer in the body behind the mirror point and still have the same problem? What has everyone else got?

Yeah I'd say that fits mate.

Mine is very similar on my hornet, possibly goes down a bit lower.

Can't moan, cost me £9.99, completely waterproof so far!

Will try to get a picture later. Thumbs Up

That's fine I think, I had the same size for my Varadero 125 which fitted fine but wouldn't go over my Deauville when I got it. I got the next size up and it covers it and goes right down to the ground so is quite a lot bigger. On your bike it would drown it I think.

I use the Stormex covers but I imagine they would be the same size. Hope this helps.

Medium on my ZZR it fitted all my others too and has lasted a while. I have a large I got in a sale as a spare, it is ridiculously big you could fit 2 ZZR's under there and probably a monkeybike behind them.

Bit of a struggle getting it on and would be nice if it was lower. Matey said i could swap it for the large but depends if its that much bigger it flaps about.

I had a medium stormex and it was very tight like yours. I wouldn't mind it protection wise but it was a PITA to get on and off.
Swapped it for a large which is absolutely bloody humongous and drowns it, but easy to put on and off and totally covers wheels etc.

String winds possibly an issue but the place my bike sits is quite sheltered and the cover itself quite heavy rather than light and flappy.

TLDR. I'm happier with one that's way too big rather than slightly to small.

I just got the biggest Stormex for my CBF125 (and use the same one on my CBR600F) - it was too big, but it made it easy to get on and off and it has a clip thing that you can run underneath so it won't blow away. Also the bottom's elasticated so it fits pretty snuggly around the wheels.
