Motorbike mini shed/storage

[Lozza2442]

Hey all,

What do you do for storing your motorbike outside? Aph and I both want a more permanent cover for our bikes. We have an area where our bikes go, but it's currently not sheltered. I was thinking of getting a gazebo with sides, but worried it'll fly away... I haven't seen a shed with a door big enough to get two bikes in side by side without making it difficult.
As I have a GN125 I'm a bit worried it'll start rusting, as I hear the buggers rust practically overnight.
I don't really want to just get a bike cover and leave it at that.

Build a shed, easy peasy. They do sell those steel garden sheds big enough for a couple of bikes, cos I had a triumph and a husky in one in massey years ago.

Buy a shipping container if you have enough room for one. They're a lot more secure than a garden shed if you put big enough locks on.

Just had a look at these, the gap it would need to fit down on the drive is too small for the truck and we've got overhead powercables. But I'll flick them an email anyway, there's a great one with a roller front door. Might be the way to go further down the track

I moved to a house with a huge garage...from a house with a massive garage, after being in a house with a large garage.
So, move to a house with a huge/large/massive/sexy garage?

Haha we have a garage, it's just occupied by Aph's ZX and it's only a single garage, ie no room for anything else...

When we do move next it will be the main requirement of the house. Well. That and a dishwasher.

In that case, a small steel one, or a decent car port if you can get one?
Otherwise, park the bikes in my garage and forget you ever had 'em

Threaten Aph, make him the dishwaher

i use a tarpaulin and string (about 4$ at bunnings.) and bike sits in a paddock.

else there's a crowd called "outpost buildings" who make kitset sheds etc with rather snappy pricing.
else just get a big trough of fish oil and ride your bike through it before getting off.
