INSTRUCTIONS FOR THE INSTALLATION
OF A GUARDIAN
® ULTRALITE ™ PLUS
MOTORCYCLE COVER
Congratulations on your purchase of a GUARDIAN ® ULTRALITE ™ PLUS motorcycle
cover. Properly cared for, your cover will last for many years of service. This cover is
manufactured from water resistant 100% polyester and may be used either inside or outdoors. Your cover has elastic
sewn into the full perimeter of the hem which keeps the cover tight around the wheels. An integral venting system
allows moisture to escape. The cover is contained in its own ‘stuff’ bag which reverses to become a part of the cover
when installed on motorcycle.The following information should be used to ensure maximum longevity.
Note: All GUARDIAN ® ULTRALITE ™ PLUS covers are sized to fit specific motorcycles. It is very important that you have
the correct one for your application. If you are uncertain that your GUARDIAN ® ULTRALITE ™ PLUS cover is correct,
please contact your dealer or DOWCO Inc. to verify your fit before attempting first-time use.
This cover is not designed for covering your motorcycle while it is trailered or in the back of a pick-up truck.
This cover must be completely removed prior to starting or operating the vehicle. Failure to do so could
result in serious injury and/or property damage. In severe windy conditions “ballooning” of the cover
may occur which could cause the motorcycle to tip over. Shelter the motorcycle whenever high winds
are expected or face into or rearward of strong gusts may reduce the potential for damage. Attaching
a bungee cord or cable through grommet areas may also help prevent “ballooning” in high winds.
Wait for motorcycle to cool down before installing cover!
Unfold cover and locate “FRONT” tag indicating the front of the cover.
Starting in the front wheel area, pull down over the windshield and tuck the elas-
tic hem below the centerline of the wheel.
Working toward the rear of the motorcycle, slide the cover down the sides,
avoiding “snag” points. The cover should be long enough to allow the hem to
fully lay below the centerline of the rear wheel. Care should also be taken to
avoid placing the material against hot engine components, as burning or melt-
ing may occur.
Caution: Mirrors, muffler ends, shifters, brakes and foot pegs are common
wear points. Do not allow fabric to “snag” around them. Antennas are capable
of puncturing the cover – use extreme care.
Plastic grommets and a integral strap are provided to enable you to secure
the cover under the motorcycle.
Storage: This cover has an integral zippered bag at the rear. It is the cover’s
storage bag and can be used for external storage while the bike is covered .
Fold the cover lengthwise until it is approximately 8” across. Fold/roll toward
the rear. Invert bag, stuff inside and zip closed.
Your cover requires very little maintenance. Normal dirt and grime should be
brushed off with a soft terry cloth or removed with warm water and a mild detergent
using a sponge or terry cloth. The cover should be thoroughly dried before storing.
Caution: Do not place in washing machine and do not wring or twist the cover to remove moisture. Failure to
comply with the above directions may reduce the life of your cover. If you have any questions or comments,
please contact either your dealer or DOWCO Inc.
