So far whats the best one out there you guys have seen and used.

I want to get some opinions cause I'm going to ditch this fiberglass one pretty soon. I need to haul my bike around and its hard with this thing, HAHAHAHA

 

I don't know any manufacturers of "leather" covers. You could probably have one made. I would buy a cover from one of the major vinyl cover manufacturers so you could use the frame and then have someone make a leather cover to fit on that frame.

 

You don't want leather...you want a durable, weather resistant material that looks like leather. If you are going to carry your bike, I recommend a roll-up style cover. This way you are not playing around with supports and such when it comes time to pull back the cover and load the bike. Check out: www.pace-edwards.com and www.accesscover.com. Both companies make excellent products. Good luck.

 

well I should have said vinyl, I don't want leather HEHEHEHEHE.

 

Sportmasters are fairly inexpensive and work well. They also have a lifetime warranty on the vinyl and frame.

 

The factory cover is pretty nice...I like mine. Real real easy to use.
Went and picked up a big craftsman tool chest last night...was real quick to take it apart to fit it in, then put it back together.

 

Here is a question to ask yourself. If you buy a factory cover and break a part of it, can you purchase that little part seperate? How much do replacement covers cost if yours is ripped?

I have had people come into my store complaining they can't get a replacement parts for their "factory" tonneau covers and the price on a new cover is around $400.

 

Extang makes a very good cover. I have their Black Max because I wanted snaps. They also make snapless versions.

 

If you bought the tonneau with your truck it has the 3 year or 36k mile warranty with it,or what ever you got for a bumper to bumper. Atleast this is how my dealer worked it, I had one of the back plastic corner pieces break on my Harley tonneau cover and they gave me a whole new one, not just the piece that broke. I thought that was a pretty good deal.

I have just recently change from the Harley Davidson Tonneau to the factory Lightning Tonneau thanks to JDM and I think it came out pretty good.

If they will do warranty replacement like HD says get that one!

 

your not going to get rid of your hard cover as in sell it are you?

 

Nothing wrong with the factory one.. I love mine man... Then get a bed rug...
Peace

 

If you are going to sell the lid let me know . I am interested .

 

I just got my L but I really like the factory cover. Its easy and practical since you can install it and remove it in less than 5 minutes. I have those little metal bars on there too but I don't know if I like them very much since they kind of stick up, but they do keep the tonneau nice and stretched out and tight. But for the price I would just go with the factory cover.
