Condensation doesn't really hurt anything.
Went out to stare at the softail some more when I got home, and it was covered in it.
still looked purdy

My bike has it's own personal el cheapo heater. Less that $20 at Lowes. Works great. No condensation=No rust

You need a door opening of 38" to get the bagger in the house.

Get a flat pancake fan 120 volt (like the ones in a PC) and tape it to the vent on the cover.

I even put in a 3'8" door to get it in the basement, I hate tight quarters on the bike, love 'em elsewhere.

No condensation when in the heat, but still gets a dust cover.

A cheep lite weight cover with a small elec fan keeping the cover inflated has worked good for me.

If it's in a garage, why cover it? A little dust is far better than condensation and ultimately rust.

A couple minutes with a chainsaw will have you in business... Just enough to get the handlebars through the door!
