When you invest in a scooter, there is nothing more fun than getting it out on the road! Whether you are cruising around the neighborhood during those long summer days or taking it around town to run errands, a great scooter is going to give you the freedom you want during the spring, summer and fall. But just like a motorcycle or a bicycle, the bad weather that comes with winter makes it hard to enjoy riding your scooter. Parking your scooter can be tough at the end of fall, since it means that rough winter weather has really started, but with the right precautions you can ensure that your scooter is in as good of shape at the end of winter as it was at the beginning. All weather motor scooter covers are essential to keeping your scooter in top condition all winter long.

What should you look for when you are shopping for a scooter cover? First and foremost, your new cover has got to be waterproof and windproof. Winter weather means plenty of rain and snow in most regions, which can be corrosive to your engine parts, to your upholstery and to your paint job, so it’s important that you protect your scooter. Being weatherproof all winter long means both being made of waterproof material and also having reinforced seams to ensure that they won’t let in any water. To ensure that it can last you through the whole winter, make sure that your new cover is also made of a durable material that is wear resistant and tear resistant.

A great cover is going to protect your scooter from all of the elements throughout every day and night, whether you are parking it outside or in the shelter of the garage. Make sure that your new cover is rated for everything, including dust and dirt, tree sap and pollen, wind, rain and especially sun. The elements in the great outdoors can be rough on all the parts of a scooter, so it’s important to invest in a cover that is going to keep your scooter safe. Make sure to carefully measure your scooter before you purchase a universal cover or get a cover that is specifically designed for your make and model. With the right cover, your scooter is going to be ready and waiting for you as soon as the sun comes out again!
