Looking for recommendations ( brand and size) for basically a dust cover for inside storage on my Tourer with a taller than stock windshield.

Numerous windy places we've been, Cheaha and this summer's InZane, the bikes
with covers are the ones that got blown over... lots of people use them, though,
you'll probably get some good answers...

If you just need a dust cover for indoor use I would just go to Walmart or Menards and buy a x- large cover.

I use a really thin (1mil ?) plastic drop cloth. In the paint section of the hardware store and less than 5 dollars 2 years ago. Its easy to handle and light weight. Indoor use only and on a cool engine or the plastic will want to float above the bike. Mine is clear, sorta, so you can see the bike. Thinking I bought the 8'x12' one.

Thanks for the suggestions. For inside winter storage only.

I use an old King size fitted sheet to cover my bike in the garage. works really well to keep the dust off the bike.

I use Ultraguard waterproof, breathable canvas covers for all of my Valkyries. They were sold when bike covers were built to last - not be disposable items. There were two different versions and I use the full-dress cover style for my Tourer.
What I'm going to do this year is to put all of the Valkyries in Bike Bubbles. Batteries kept in the bikes and on chargers, tanks full of stabilized fuel. Carbs drained, oil with less than 200mi on it since last change. Next fall I'll do a fresh change prior to rolling them into the Bubbles.
