Storage covers

I had a discussion at work about moisture when storing any type of vehicle.

When he stores his MGB in a unheated garage over the winter, he uses one bag of cat litter in the vehicle and another outside the vehicle. When he unwrapps it in the spring. he says there is no musty smell .

If its good for controlling Cat odor it must aslo be good for gas and oil odor.
 
It would be just my luck that all the cats in the neighborhood would use the litter :lolrolling

Thanks Smitty,

I wonder why the premium one is $60.00 cheaper not that I'm complaining or anything.

I just put the bike away for the winter. It's in a locked, unheated garage but I'd still like to cover it. As long as I'm buying a cover I want to buy one that will work outdoors too. Any suggestions?

Thanks in advance

Hello, Don't waste your money on those fitted "Breathable" Covers. I purchased one for the Ultra and came to find the bike soaked under the cover. I took it off and replaced it with a low thread count "cheap" Queen size black bed sheet ($7.00). No more moisture, dry as a bone and stayed that way all winter. That's all I will use. Moose
 
Hiya,my bike is away for winter,unheated garage,my cover is for outdoor/indoor and is breathable and waterproof ????
 
Same as Smitty901, I use the HD cover(s) & they work great. Got the cotton one for summer (HD# 91685-98) & indoor/outdoor for winter (HD# 98715-85VC). I have my 09 SG connected to the Battery Tender, up on a "rubberized" floor mat w/can of "damp rid" under the cover to keep moisture out. Did the same w/my 05 XL1200C & never had rust/residue problems.:newsmile082:
 
Hello. First I want to thank everyone for all the helpful info on this site. I have an 08 Ultra Stage 1, and just switched to Spectro/ Mobil 1.
I think I already know the answer, but wanted some input from y'all.
Thinking of storing the bike on my new lift table in front of the pellet stove.
Problem is I only fire up the stove on weekends when working in the garage.
I figure this will contaminate the oil with condensation. Right?
My other option is to put in an unheated shed and throw down some dryer sheets (mice). Thanks for any advise, I've gotten alot out of this site-absolutely incredible.
