Invest in a Durable and Breathable Cover

A motorcycle cover can help keep your bike safe from the elements & pests and hidden from crafty thieves. They come in a wide range of styles and materials, so you can choose one that fits your budget and needs.

Many covers feature lockable fasteners for extra safety and built-in ventilation systems to help reduce condensation buildup while your bike is in storage. Keep your options open when shopping for covers for your bike.

Get Sturdy Wheel Chocks

A wheel chock is an essential accessory for anyone who stores their motorcycle indoors or in a garage. Chocks hold the front wheel in place and prevent the bike from moving or rolling around when it’s in storage. You can attach them to the floor or wall to ensure maximum security.

Purchase a Battery Tender

If you plan not to ride your motorcycle for a few days or weeks, you will benefit from using a battery tender. This handy accessory will keep your bike’s battery safe and charged until you plug it back in after your time off.

We hope you can use these aftermarket accessories to keep your motorcycle safe during storage. If you have more questions or need storage ideas for your bike, contact Biggs Harley-Davidson®. You’ll find us in San Marcos, CA, proudly serving those from San Diego and Oceanside.
