They fit in the saddle bag luggage you get with new bike. One per bag and hang them in the shop. Engines may stay warmer but rider does not with them on. Less to catch love bugs and have to clean.

I pack mine in a box with Styrofoam around them. Then they go in the attic so they don't get disturbed.

Never take them off. Of course with the 2016 that would take some serious work.
