Bike Sheds
Does anybody have a bike shed and if so, where's is from and what's it like? I've been keeping the SV outside and covered as I don't have a garage but I think I'd like to get some sort of out building for the new bike.
Also, if I have the bike in a locked, alarmed bike shed, do you think I can declare the bike garaged to the insurance company? Cheers folks WB |

I think you can declare it then garaged but I'm sure they ask what its made from too.

Re: Bike Sheds
I've got one of these http://www.trimetals.co.uk/motorcycl...ge.php?m=3&g=8
I got the biggest one, with a flooring pack, and 7 years on the only part that is starting to look it's age is the bit of flooring near the door. I've even had 3 of the local yoof sat on top to watch the sunset (big-uns and all!) and you can hardly tell they were there, which is just as well! Insurance wise, it's been counted as a garage.

Re: Bike Sheds
I have an asgard secure shed. The insurance companies count it as a garage. It s made of thick steel and cost a bloody fortune but its very well made.

Re: Bike Sheds
It does look very cool, especially as you can have a power point in there too. What colour did you go for?
