Abstract: Embodiments of the present invention relate to a protective cover/bag (hereinafter “protective device”) for preserving and securing motorized vehicles such motorcycles, ATVs, or the like. In an embodiment, the protective device may be designed to completely enclose most motorcycles. The bottom may be constructed with a durable material such as 1000 denier, which can be capable of withstanding multiple years of use. The protective device may be made with water repellant material. A fastener for enclosing the vehicle within the protective device may be industrial strength and/or military tested. Two vent flaps may be provided to allow air flow around the vehicle. Still yet, a protective flap may be provided to protect against water entering through the fastener.
