Does anyone use a cover while in transport? Was thinking of getting one, thoughts? Thanks

I do. I like a lot. I have an 2010 SXR 800, so it isn't very hard to put on and even easier to take off. It also helps keep it clean on and off the road

I always cover my ski when I tow it. The OEM Yamaha covers are designed for towing. They have vents that suck the cover down tight around the ski when you get up to speed. Keeps the bugs and road debris off the ski. One thing a lot of people don't know about is that Yamaha covers have 2 clips on the side that need to be clipped on the edge of the ski before you tow with it to make the cover function correctly.

Be careful with aftermarket covers. Some of them specifically say they are not to be used for towing.

They have 2 bullet shaped rubber pieces on the side that suck the cover to ski when your driving
