So i just bought the Cycle Shell (www.cycleshell.com) for my 2011 Ninja 1000. I had mentioned that the wife had hit me with a Divorce - and of course gets the house while my kids are growing up. So i have no garage where i'm currently staying. But i do have a yard. So i just plunked down $405 ($325 + 80 shipping) for the cycleshell. It is shipping out today fedex. Should arrive in a week. A friend of mine here has it and swears by it. He's had it for 3 years. He said his needs a new cover (new cover costs around $120) - but that's pretty good for 3 years. I live in the Northeast (New York, Long Island). I called the company and they say the snow and wind will NOT be a problem. The guy said to just clean off any snow that piles up on it after a snow storm is over so the snow doesn't melt - then freeze and get super heavy.
I'll give you guys a full report when it arrives, including some pics of it with my bike inside it. Figured there may be some of you looking to buy it or something similar.
whoah! that thing looks cool. Overkill to put one IN your garage to keep dust and bugs off your ride??? Would be cool if they made a lightweight version for indoors.
