Scoots, Apartments, Winter, and Texas
So the last two winters, I was living in a house and could keep my 2010 883 in the garage during the winter. This year, I'm in an apartment. it's on the 2nd floor, so bringing the scoot inside isn't an option. That said, I'm in Texas, and it rarely gets under 45-50 during the winter. What would you folks recommend for the winter? Rent a storage shed? Or should I just cover the bike and run it a little more often to keep everything flowing?
And yeah, I realize how dumb these questions probably are.

I live in apartment in SoCal. I have a carport and just keep my bike covered. That's it. I ride it so no need to start it when it is sitting. If you don't have some sort of structure to cover it from the rain get a cover.

Ride Ride Ride , i ride year round here in Pennsylvania , it gets down to the teens and sometimes single digit temps . the snow and ice make it a challenging ride . so i say ride, ride , ride i wish it would only go to the 50s -40s , again ride ride ride, and maybe throw a cover over it during the night or rainy weather .
