Much Better Than A Motorcycle Cover!

by Matthew Sullivan on March 29, 2018

Storing your motorcycle outside is not ideal. Outside, your motorcycle is more likely to be noticed and accessed by unsavory types - It’s much less secure.

 

You live in a crime free town? Okay.

Even in the driest, warmest of climates - and even if you diligently detail your motorcycle and use a cover, your bike could develop “patina” a lot more rapidly if stored outside.

 

If you live in a coastal region, oxidation will inevitably occur to some degree. Cleaning your motorcycle before you cover it helps prevent that greenish stuff that gives way to brown and ultimately to pitting, but who’s got time to detail their bike after each ride? Storing your motorcycle inside an enclosed structure will provide you with a nice space to come in and detail your bike at your leisure. Who wants to detail their bike in weather? Who wants to detail their bike only to put a dirty cover back on it?

 

Speaking of cleaning your bike before covering it… Yeah you’re suppose to wipe down those painted surfaces with a microfiber cloth doused in your favorite detailer product BEFORE you put that cover on. If you have debris on the paint or on the cover itself, you could create some abrasion and some subsequent swirl marks in your clear coat.

 

Let’s say you do have time to wipe down the paint and cover your motorcycle after each ride…

If you store your motorcycle for long periods of time under a cover, moisture can build up underneath. If your cover doesn’t breathe well, you might still get some oxidation on metal surfaces - even if you live inland.

 

But you don’t expect your bike to look like a show bike? Okay.

Are you paying for full coverage motorcycle insurance? You’ll get a discount for storing your bike inside a structure.

Do you like taking the cover on and off everyday?

Do you ever plan to sell the motorcycle? Wouldn’t you like to maximize its resale value?

Protect that thing from weather and weirdos!
