The high here for tomorrow is -22. Been snowing here for 2months. Stuck in the heated garage. I'm soon buying a trailer and driving south with OL till I see green grass and going for a ride. Might be looking some of you guys up to go for a ride

I got lifetime free winter storage at purchase last year. I had double carpal tunnel surgery so they got it. I didn't think much of them taking the battery out(touching any bolt) so I think I'll keep it under a quilt in the car trailer until I figure how to get it in a 32" door. I never dreamed a 120 year old house would have tiny doors. with all the guards and handlebars off, front wheels on a dolly it can come in the living room, my wifes nightster in the dining room ! I'll have a heated secure half of the garage next year. they stay insured.

I store my bike in my own garage where I can get to it when *I* want it and not have wait in line for a couple of weeks. My garage is roomy and clean and relatively secure. I have insurance coverage for the full 12 months that is priced with minimal winter use in mind. But, if I want to ride in January, I can.

Mine is sitting in the garage on the lift. Waiting to either clean it up and move it over to the barn or tear it a part and do a some sort of a custom paint job.

Bought my first new bike and stored it in the dining room, I have a sliding glass door there. unfortunately my Road King doesn't fit ! usually I try to get some work done and leave it at a shop for awhile, just wait for a decent day to pick it up!
