JDC covers (especially their ultimate heavy duty) are much better than Oxford..
I have had 2 Oxfords and these are far better/heavier.
For the GSX you need the Large size..
They can be bought pre shaped for a top box if your that way inclined..
Hope the link via my phone works..

Also will recommend JDC ULTIMATE RAIN.
Only thing - size L may be a little bit bulky (I have "L"). Possible, size M will be better, but will not guaranty it will fit.

Blime Northern..
My Large size is quite a snug fit..
I definitely could not get a medium size to fit mine!
I phoned the JDC suppliers and asked the size they recommended and they said Large..

Bloody good covers though.

just for aussies, gear up covers from repco. mine is coming up to its 7th qld summer. at work its used everyday. throw in washing machine to clean. still perfect. around 80 bucks. totally water proof. large fits perfectly, im guessing but mustve covered bike with it around 1thou. times. love stuff that works. made in china but who cares.
