The "shed in a box" looks great too. I guess I got to make a trip to home despot.

+1 that is a good ideal and really not a bad price at all since a HD cover is around $100 so spending a little extra maybe just about the same as building one out of wood? so going with the cover you could always take with you ?

My brother is looking at getting one of these and they are only $355 so not a bad idea.

The problem I see with those is, My bike leans pretty far to the left using the jify stand....as you can see in the video, even using a jap bike with a center stand it look s like the room is tight. So do you have to pull in to the stall as far to the right as possible so when my bike leans to the left, the cover will easily De-cordian <<<my new word......just a thought!!!

I'm kinda torn between getting something like the shed in a box and getting a decent cover that I can carry with me.On the one hand with a cover I can park on the street in front of the house when I plan on riding the next day where with the shed in a box I'm pretty much stuck with putting it in the back yard.Then again the back yard is definately more secure and the shed in a box is going to provide much better protection from the elements than a cover.Damn, I've kept my bikes indoors since 2000 now I'm actually considering parking it on the street, times are tough.

The problem I have seen with these types of sheds is they will collect condensation, especially if you have live in an area with a lot of moisture. It's probably better to have something made out of wood. I have a Tuff Shed but that's a little pricey. I thing Lowes has a selection of sheds that are reasonably priced.

Another thing is, I've built one of those metal sheds before and it was quite a project.Like an erector set from hell.The shed in a box looks like it's maybe a little more difficult than a tent but not as complicated as one of those metal sheds.You know the original throw a tarp over it and weight it down idea is starting to look better and better.Oh well it's not like it's an emergency and I need to make a decision tonight.
