Post by Don Denmark »

Ok will someone please ease my minde I have my beloved VTR stored in a garage and covered BUT there is zero heating, am I putting it in harms way?? I'm thinking of mouldering rubber hoses etc or is it just the battery loosing amp's? :?

The battery will be the first thing to give you problems. I used to remove mine and keep it indoors when the weather got to freezing and I wasn't going to use the bike.

I have a small oil-filled radiator which sits in my garage on a thermostat, it only cost about £20 and even when it's on really low it still keeps dampness out of the garage and off the bikes.

I wouldn't worry about the hoses, they seem very tough and they perish more due to age than temperature.
