All you guys and your cover woes at home and in your garage just kill me, you want to make this thing so much more complicated than it has to be, don't get me wrong I use a good quality rain cover when traveling while parked at hotels at night but as much for security as rain. At home in the garage for dust, for years now I use a king size sheet, try it, works great.

Mine is garage kept also. I have a piece of carpeting I took from one of our bedrooms after having it re-carpeted of course. I always park the bike over it and throw an old king size sheet over my ultra. Never had a problem with moisture. An old hard core biker told me about using carpet. Even in an old shed it seems to work well.

Goldenrod from West Marine. Low power draw, less expensive then running a light bulb. I like the idea and the idea of putting a piece of carpet underneath too.
Good tips!

sounds like you have an issue with moisture coming up from the concrete in your floor. is your garage floor wet? I had issues with alot of moisture coming you through the garage floor (contractor didn't use a moisture barrier before they poured the concrete). place a tarp or something under the bike then cover.
