Door shouldn't be a problem, I take my bike in and out of the back door of my garage every day- it's narrower than my handlebars

My work colleague has a Hardly which he keeps in a shed. He actually cut the shaped of the bike to make bigger doors!

Got this 7ft x 7ft shed from Focus for about £220 I think. They took an age to deliver it and all the bits. And I took an age to get around to building it
But it was worth it. Constant 15 C, lights, power for optimate and alarm. By the way this is a photo while I was still installing the insulation and sheeting and before I mounted the optimate and alarm on the wall.
I just slide the bike around so that its diagonal, but it might actually fit straight, but its easier to shut the doors and get out with it diagonal
