    Thats cool, it keeps all the garage mishaps away from the bike or anyother kind of mishaps you can think of.

    Agree ... somehow my garage gets FULL of dust even with the doors closed all the time . This will be much handier than using a cover all the time. I hear that covers will scratch your bike as you pull it over if there is ANY debris on the paint, plus you have to wait for the bike to cool down unless you get the aluminum lined ones. This is a MUCH better alternative. Plus much less expensive than the BikeBarn. I won’t need the durability of the BikeBarn as the MotoShell will never be exposed to the elements!!

    I'm cleaning the third stall of my garage out tomorrow. The local GoodWill will be getting huge donations from me this weekend!!! It’s amazing how long I held on to that junk and how quickly I will get rid of it to replace the space with my new bike. I guess that it takes the religious experience of getting a bike to encourage me to purge myself of all that is unnecessary. I expect to get the bike in about 3~4 weeks!!!

    Give everyone your feedback 99Vulcan99 once you get it!! And Picts too!!

    Thanks for this. Time to replace my cover and this looks promising.

    good luck and post pics when its up and together. i bought the cycle shell last year and its cool. i just dont like how it touches the left side of the bike because these cruisers lean so far over.

    As an owner of a Bike Barn, the concept is very cool and works very well. Looks like this is the exact same thing with a lighter cover and, maybe, aluminum frame? (The Bike Barn has galvanized steel frame and sustantial cover). I'm not sure I'd use the cheaper version anywhere it might be exposed to the elements (high winds, hard rain, etc), but would be nice inside a garage.

    For me, the Bike Barn is my only option ...it *is* my garage.
