[How is it used?
...Purchased on October 5, 2023 for about 1 month. With rainfall
Was the one you received as per Image?
The product is exactly as shown in the image.
How was your experience with it?
As described in the product description, the cover is easy to put on and take off thanks to the large opening SIDE.
Since the vehicle can be checked only by opening and closing the SIDE zipper, I feel that it is easier for uninformed people to check the inside of the vehicle compared to the Cover, which is completely covered.
As the claim of "Fit", it covers from Mirror to Tire completely and just right.
Black, so a little dirt is not noticeable.
Resistant because it has not melted even if Cover is applied immediately after returning home.
The puddling of rainwater between Mirror and Stem that occurred during Y’S GEAR did not occur.
I need to fix the anti-slamming Belt at the bottom, so I have to bend down and stretch my arms. At that time, I am afraid of contact with the Exhaust System.
Fastener easily chews through the Orange fabric covering the fastener, so be careful.
Not rated because I am of the school of thought that locks do not go through Cover.
[Points to note]
Avoid contact with the Exhaust System when installing the Belt buckle.
How did it compare to other products?
*Comparison is Y’S GEAR, which was repeatedly used on a yearly basis. (YAMAHA) :Motorcycle Cover E Type (https://www.webike.net/sd/24026744/)
Attaching and detaching the Cover is easier and less time consuming with this product.
The front and rear strings can be pulled to secure the device in place. This product is mainly mentally scary.
Fit feeling was better with this product, and the weight of the water did not cause puddles in parts of the product to dip under the weight of the water.
The thickness is thicker and seems to be more durable.
The price of this product is often less expensive when discounts are taken into account.
The manufacturer that sells the Cover has the same appearance (Silver base with Blue front, etc.) for various targets such as Scooter, but this manufacturer sells only this Cover with the exception of the Inner, and it seems that this manufacturer's Cover has no security function that prevents identification of the vehicle type. However, this manufacturer sells only the Cover, except for the Inner, and the Cover of this manufacturer does not seem to have a security performance that does not allow the user to identify the model of the vehicle.
[Opinions and requests to Manufacturer
I would feel more comfortable if you sold Covers for various types of motorcycles, not just sports type motorbikes. (https://www.doppelganger.jp/product_list/cover_motorcycle/)
The ease of attachment/detachment and the fit of the vehicle are highly satisfactory as described in the product description. On the other hand, the ease of attachment/detachment and the fact that the security performance is inferior to other Covers due to the narrowing of the vehicle in the Cover state are a little scary.

Generally good.
I used a Cover in the $1,000s and it was so thin that it had a hole in it after six months.
The thicker, $2,000s Covers are too thick and scratchy to STIFF and BODY.
DAYTONA products are being used for CYGNUS, and they are small as per the Review.
This time Doppelganger decided to purchase the Side fastener because it is easy to install.
A little large for 600RR because of SSUniversal.
It is possible to squeeze in Band, but Band installation is a pain in the ass.
The wire lock hole is too small to feed the keyhole into the cover.
The fabric of Cover is thinner than expected.
Easy to remove because of handles in each section.
Durability remains to be seen.

This is great!
I was concerned that it might be too short for the ZX-14R, so I searched the Net for a user, but I couldn't find a good concrete hit, so I ordered it on the spur of the moment.
Not to worry, the length is not a problem at all, no, I would say it is a perfect Fit.
In addition, as a countermeasure against mischief and theft, the first point is not to show the Motorcycle, but I was skeptical about the explanatory article that black is less conspicuous, etc. However, I actually used it and felt that it is less conspicuous than silver even in the daytime when seen from a distance.
Well, it's a little bit conspicuous with DOPPELGANGER's color, Orange Accent, but it's not a problem! LOL!
The diagonal zipper is really easy to use.
I hung up the Cover while forgetting to remove the Motorcycle key, but I was able to remove the key without removing the entire Cover by simply opening and closing the Zipper section.
The inside of the Cover is soft and seems to be resistant to scuffs and scratches on the Body.
To begin with, though, if you raise that diagonal zipper first and open it, you can lift the front and back of the Cover right up, so that you don't even have to rub it.
There is one difficulty, the Center belt for wind protection, but the Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) and seems to have the same length with Quantity:Pair (for Left and Right) The Buckle is designed in such a way that the Buckle for connecting the Belt of the Motorcycle comes directly under the Motorcycle.
This makes it a bit difficult to bend down and reach for the Buckle!
As a stopgap measure, I adjusted the Left Side Belt to be the longest so that it could be connected as high as possible on the Right Side of the Motorcycle, which brought the Buckle to a visible position and improved it somewhat.
Well, that's not so much of a point deduction compared to the overall satisfaction.
I would like to state that these are my impressions on the sixth day of use.

I'm happy with the purchase
It is a firm fabric.
Now we just have to wait and see how long it takes to degrade.

I purchased Repeat
This is the second Repeat.
They are replaced once a year.
I use it for SS and sports type motorbike because it is easy to use and has good waterproof property.
The hole for the chain lock is small and I would like to see it improved.

One year after purchase
It was used outdoors in the sun for one year after purchase.
It was SIDEZip, easy to use, and I liked it, but it finally started tearing. It was rustling on a windy day, and when I looked at it the next day, there was a hole of several centimeters that ripped lengthwise…
Back colors fade rather quickly.
I am not sure if I should Repeat this product as it is not bad considering the price and ease of use.
