If you don't own a home and live in an apartment, you only have two choices on where to keep your scoot. 1- Buy a cover and park it in the apt. parking lot, now all you have to worry about is screaming winds, snow, ice, kids and thieves but it's cheap. 2- Find a local and close "storage area" to basicly give you a "rent a garage" and get ready to pay out BIG BUCKS!!
Sigh, with the Suzuki Boulevard S40 being a quite smallish cruiser, it doesn't weight much and when you put a "cover" on it becomes a SAIL!! :O So we went Storage Area shopping and found a couple in walking distance. The first one is OLD and hasn't got 24hr. access so we looked at the second one and it's NEW but man is it weird!! The units are all "inside" a lockable building, like being in a giant warehouse. You have to walk you scoot down several hallways to get to your storage area. Yes, it's got 24 hr. access but you have to use a electroinc card and swipe 2 doors and if you don't get in before 6:30 PM. you can't use the sweet double wide automatic doors, you have to go thru one door, then open another one to bring the scoot in. As stated, luck has it the S40 is not a wide scoot so it will work but what a PIA!!
We will try this for 1 month and see if we can live with it, if not, I guess it's back to the old style unit and time hassles, BUMMER!!
