go-pod scooter and motorcycle cover


Introducing the go-pod motorcycle and scooter cover - a bike cover like no other!



Each go-pod bike cover is manufactured to fit specific bike and scooter models ranging from 50cc scooters to sports bikes and tourers. Maxi-scooter covers coming soon. They're the ideal rain cover and useful as a dust cover too.


The features of this unique product are as follows:

  • go-pod has a unique self-contained bag system that eliminates the need to find a place to store the cover before use and the bag during use.
  • go-pod can be quickly deployed in all kinds of weather including high winds and covers your bike in seconds.
  • go-pod can be worn like a belt or attached to a pillion seat.
  • go-pod has built-in heat reflector panels to help protect the cover when the bike being covered is hot.
  • go-pod has heavy duty plastic eyelets for a security chain on the rear wheel.
  • go-pod has front and rear reflectors on the cover.
  • go-pod can help act as a theft deterrent when the bike is covered.
  • Unique attachment straps allow the go-pod (in almost all cases) to be secured and locked to most seat types.
  • go-pod is completely waterproof (to the headstat of 5000mm) with taped and double stitched seams which can also help protect your bike against harmful UV rays.
  • go-pod has two belly pan straps and an elasticated bottom edging for a snug and secure fit.

Polini Evolution engine case


New from Polini are these rather slick looking transmission covers to fit horizontal Minarelli engines (long version).


Trick looks are all well and good but it’s what’s underneath that counts and the most important feature here is the primary gear with variator driven pulley. Polini Motori have developed the engine case so that it’s possible to fit the supplementary gear that works on a pin to be screwed on the shaft itself. Thanks to this the pin is less flexible when usually it is completely overhanging.


A second useful feature is the inclusion of an air intake to improve variator cooling, this comes pre-fitted with a foam sponge to prevent unwanted dirt and air impurities from getting inside.

Polini claim that with the above additions it’s possible to eliminate variator vibration and exploit all the belt run on the variator. Great for tuned engines.


Four colour options are on offer:

Carbon: 128 Euros (£106) + VAT
Chromed: 119 Euros (£98) + VAT
Blue: 119 Euros (£98) + VAT
Black: 119 Euros (£98) + VAT

The above prices are approximate at the time of writing.
