Has anyone ever lived in a "Loft" apartment and parked your bike in it? You know those open concept apartments that are usually reclaimed old multi-story warehouses.
I have a vague memory of a movie scene where the guy rode his bike into the freight elevator, went up a few levels, then parked his ride in the living area of his loft.

There's some local property that might lend itself to this concept. Just wondering if it's a realistic consideration?

 

The main concern with this is insurance for the owners of the building. If I lived in a loft my bike would be front and center.

I looked into that out here a few yrs ago and everywhere I did had very specific rules about anything with an engine coming into the building like no way but some gay freak could play artist and a have damn paint store with all the assorted flammable stuff with no problem .

 

We have an issue like this at work. All motorcycles inside need to be drained of gas and have the batteries disconnected due to insurance.

 

I'd much prefer a garage and be really concerned with the heating bills, especially in Canada.

 

Many years ago I rented a downstairs apartment off a garage and the owners let me roll my bike into my living quarters. After awhile it got to be a pain to get it in and out so I just parked it in a corner of their garage - with chain and padlock attached.

 

If I could get it there I would park it there... I used to park mine on my back porch during the winter months and the one house I had I put my shovelhead back together in the dining room. Rolled it out on the deck, fired it up and rode it down the steps. Nowadays with the insurance regs it probably wouldn't fly to park in a loft apartment.

Never had a problem parking in a hotel room... LOL

 

Didn't Dan Tanner use to pull his T-Bird in along side his living room?

 

I've had both mine in my living room. Not at the same time though.

 

I think your referring to the movie Tron: Legacy, and I too would love to be able to park my bike in my living room/kitchen
