Black ITR Guy Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 rotor locks but make sure you take them off or you will have a big mess on your hands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Casper Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 ...where or how do you store and secure you bikes? I just got a bike but have no garage. Congrats on getting a bike! You can always rent a garage. On campus they go for around $50/mo. Or find an apartment complex near you with garages for rent. Usually you can pick those up for $50-$75/mo.

ODoyle Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 If you live near polaris there are garages for rent all over the place. Im not sure where you are located though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pedro1647545510 Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 Unless you want to come outside and see your bike gone I suggest you rent a garage somewhere. It's very easy for a bike to be rolled away and thrown into a pickup or van. Putting it into a garage doesn't make it theft proof but it helps. Try a storage place as well, I know a few people that store their bikes there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scheetz31 Posted June 15, 2008 Author Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 i am on campus...there is a nice spot b/w mine and nieghbors house that kinda keeps the bike outta view. i was thinking rotor lock and bike chain. I can chain it to the deck. There is no way someone can pull a truck or anything up w.out getting notice. however, if i can find a garage around me, that is def. the way i want to go.

copperhead Posted June 15, 2008 Report Share Posted June 15, 2008 I've seen plenty of people on here keep them in their kitchen. If you have a wide door, like a sliding glass door, it's easy to go through, and if there are steps just use a wood board for a ramp. Unless of course you have a second floor apartment, then just rent a garage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AutoFreak57 Posted June 17, 2008 Report Share Posted June 17, 2008 what did you end up getting scheetz? i would lock it to your back deck Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TimTheAzn Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 +1 for the kitchen idea, and +1 for the chains and locks. Chain it to your kitchen table or refrigerator. lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JaSSon Posted June 18, 2008 Report Share Posted June 18, 2008 I used to store mine outside locked to a steel pole with a massive chain. It got fucked with buy never stolen. I'm sure it was just a matter of time tho. Safest bet is to store it inside. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
