Default Where to keep bike?

I'm moving into an apartment in Los Angeles, where there is no garage to keep the bike. I definetely don't want to leave it on the street. Called around for storage, it's around $150/month, so thats out. Any ideas???

Well the weather is nice out there so you won't have to worry about it getting ruined by constant rain. Plus you can ride it everyday.

Get a cover and insurance with a low deductable.

How about inside the apartment If you can't do that maybe a friend or relative would let you keep it in their garage. If you do have to park it outside buy a Honda motorcycle cover to put over it, then it should be safe. lol

I'd rather sell the bike than leave it on the streets of Los Angeles. Looks like I'll have to shell out the storage payment if theft insurance and a Honda cover is the other option...

Keep it in the apartment if you don't have a ground level apartment look for one and move they are a dime a dozen. Don't leave it on the street it will be stolen and insurance dosn,t cover that violated feeling you get when some a$$hole steals your bike

Sounds like the best deal if you know anyone local. Perhaps a trusted co-worker?

Good luck and welcome to So Cal.

Don't know if you and "Anuibiss" from this site are anywhere near each other but perhaps you two could go 50/50 on a storage space. I believe he is in the same situation you are bike-storage-wise.

You might consider dropping him a PM. You never know.
