Erm, to keep it clean  :wink:

Tapps, Mrs DB bought me a Kawasaki cover the other year for the GTR, not cheap but heavy duty and suitable for outdoor use as well.
My other toys just have generic blue cloth covers which keep the toys clean.

I have a cheap nasty one that does the job in my shed.
I have a steel shed and it drips condensation all over the bike so the cheap waterproof one is ideal in side.

I also have a steel heated shed but still get condensation.  I use an old large bedsheet which seems to do the trick.

Cold Steel of the shed and just heat from the exhaust causes it.
I have even fixed insulation to the steel it reduced it a bit but i  still use the cover

I use a cover on each bike.  It keeps the dust off and stop the occassional knock as the kids move bikes and other crap around in the garage.  It also stop them putting stuff on the seats as well. 
I could just get rid of the kids but I'd miss the noise !
