Garage humidity question??

When I rode <cough>Goldwings<cough> I always chromed my wheels and everything else just like my Harley so I kept the bike in a wooden building to absorb the moisture and kept lights on the wheels to prevent condensation. Worked like a charm.
I keep the Harley in the house now. Goldwings belong outside.

Disclamer: I know nothing about nothing....I'm just sharing what I would do.....
I don't know if your talking about "Storing" the bike.....if so.....
I'd yank the battery and wrap her up in plastic and put two of those Dehumidifire plastic tubs in there with it....
The tubs (same as the ones used to store a boat for the winter) will keep the air dry and whatever moisture goes into the tub's with the dehumidifier agent and stay's off the bike.
I'd also throw a nice blanket over it cause I'm a psychotic...

One thing I haven't seen anyone mention here is covering up the floor under the bike to create a barrier over the concrete. The concrete holds moisture and as the humidity changes the moisture rises. I put something similar to this where my bike is parked:

I live in Florida and keep my bike covered in the garage. I use a sheet like cover like this:

I have not had any corrosion or issues with this method

Somebody mentioned a sheet of plywood. I read this sometime back and got some plywood and it does work. And my son bought some of what Tick Tock has the link to Home Depot and put that on his plywood. I think a dehumidifier would work too. We not to far from the coast and it stays very humid around us.

Took yalls advice about the fan. the fog this morning was about as thick as it gets and my garage was dry when i left for work at 4 am. I just went to wallyworld last night and got a $15 box fan and put it about two foot away from the bike. I was suprised that the entire 2 car garage was dry, i figured it would be dry just around the bike, i guess the trick is to keep the air circulating. Thanks for all the help, you guys are awsome.
