Abstract
A flexible protective cover which attaches over the forward surfaces of a motorcycle. The protective cover includes a central portion and two attached side flaps. The central portion fits over the forward surfaces of the upper cowling. The two side flaps fit over the sides of the lower cowling. The cover's upper portion is attached by slipping adjustable tabs around the stalks of the rear view mirrors. The lower portion is attached around the radiator opening. The trailing edges of the two side flaps may also be attached to the lower cowling. The invention optionally includes an integrated fender cover which slips over the motorcycle's front fender and lock around the two struts supporting the front wheel. With this device installed, all the forward-facing painted surfaces are protected from bug strikes and the like.
