Sell the bike and worry about your health.

 

Roadkingron1 Iain't look'n for anything ,i just don't get it. I see classic cars in the same kind of garages and they get damp and then dry a couple hours later. They are worth many times what a bike is worth . Even see bikes under a cover next to the apartment . If the addons are any good some moisture ain't gona make it rust . Will be dry as soon as the sun comes up. To many treat a bike like a queen . If thats the case then think about that before the out lay of cash. Maybe a 18000 dollar bike and a garage that has insulation and wall coverings in it to keep goodies inside at a more controled conditions. Know a guy that has keep his bike in a barn for the last 12 years ,bike is like new. It gets damp and then dry's.

 

Good advice from buckskin.
You need to move the air.
Any heat source will help.
I'd leave it uncovered unless you you use the heat from underneath. Heat rod, light bulb, other source.
Your choice. Start with air movement. Then move to heat with air. See what works in your situation. Just keep the freakin' moisture off the bike.


I'd leave any type of cover off so I could asses the situation often. Out of sight out of mind isn't what you want.
That's my .02

 

hardluk, I was agreeing with you and Tramp.... Ya'll call 'em like you see 'em and I gotta respect that.

Oh and if you ever become as evil as Tramp, that's a compliment....

 

OH , OK a compliment . I typicaly get slammed for common scents.

 

Whatever you do, do not place a plastic drop sheet on top of your bike, it will only trap moisture below it.

 

put it on an old rug, piece of carpet, or plywood..like buckskin says, moisture comes up from the concrete floor..and a cheap box fan..

 

I live in Vermont. A cover and a boat anti-mildew unit works great in my unheated garage. It puts out about as much heat as a 100 watt bulb and moves it around with a fan. Cheap as a light bulb to run. Keeping the air moving is important. Available in any boat store or online for about $50-$75. Good Luck!

 

Been pretty busy so I haven't had much time to come in, hang out with my cohorts and irritate a few....
Ride safe in 09 & beyond!
