I bought this cover about a month or two ago. The other day I noticed it has 3-4 large (1" to 2" diameter) in it. What the hell? Is that from weather? Animals? Neighboor kids? The bike is stored outside under an awning. I always waited for the bike to cool off before putting the cover on. Is this normal with cheaper covers?

well where are the holes?  near exhaust?  what do the holes look like? melted? chewed? ripped?  need more info..

Mostly near the seat, I guess chewed would be the closest, but why would an animal want to eat plastic?

maybe there was somethign underneath?   something on the seat?  its fake leather right?

If you accidentally get gasoline on the cover that can cause holes.

Why would anything chew at it ? Hmmmmmm Well the Shitehawks - Seagulls around here will chew and peck through anything that looks remotely like it might be a plastic garbage bag. What colour is the cover, could the local wildlife mistake it for a garbage bag ??

Very flattering.   :lol:

Yeah, I'm not sure that the wildlife would worry too much  :dunno:
I did notice in the independent review it was mentioned that is was very thin and suitable more as a dust cover, if it was plastic and flapping about around here the Seabirds would shred it PDQ  :x

I don't know anything about the wildlife in Ohio but my bet would be on small furry or feathered critters
