Carcoon Bike bubble

[RemaL]

Anyone every used one on a bike

I was looking into getting one at the end of the season as my garage is not connected to the house and can get some moisture and cold in the winter being in the UK

It's got to be better than using a dehumidifier

Only thing I'm not sure about is if they work when using a optimate battery conditioner and having a ground anchor fitted to the bike when in the garage

Any tips or suggestions on using these types of covers ?

cheers

It looks like it would do the job.

My garage isn't heated and I haven't had any issues with undue build-up of excessive moisture. I guess it will depend on how damp it gets and whether a small greenhouse style heater would be sufficient instead?

I have used and using a dehumidifier in the past. Works well but want something more specific for the bike instead of removing a little moisture from the who garage

It's well ventilated but still can get a little moisture in there

My friend uses these, from what ive seen, they do a brilliant job , room for locks and an optimate if you require, they do hook up to the mains to run the small inbuilt fan.

I'll be interested in one of these for next winter, as our garage is unheated and does get quite damp at times!

I noticed this winter was worse than normal for condensation, both my bikes had a film of water on them, my Ducati even ended up with a nice layer of mould on the radiator.........

Unsure how I can get my ground anchor in there without damaging the bubble

Ah, no , room for locks but no ground anchor for sure, having had a bike stolen from a garage away from the house, I would suggest ensuring the door and any windows are the main focus of your security, once they are in, no lock will stop a determined thief but thats a different thread.

I know she would say yes but I have no room in doors to start with to have the bike in the house ;(
