I am looking for a non-permenent shed that can house a Honda Ruckus scooter. The Ruckus is 72" long ( 6ft ) and 37" ( 3ft 1 inch ) mirror tip to mirror tip. Do any of you have either a metal shed or a plastic shed that you would reccomend?

Ever consider a tarp? A shed seems like overkill for a scooter.

hahaha... I was just gonna post that, too!

Why do you say that? I live in New England and housing it for the winter in a shed is definately cheaper than renting a storage container.

There are some really cool pop-up temporary vehicle shelters on the market right now. There are some motorcycle-specific ones that are really nice and not too expensive.

I forget the brand. I'll look it up when I get to work on Monday and post in this thread.

thanks Porter.

A small storage container to house the scooter from November to March will be $42.00 a month. That could be $200 towards a shelter for the scooter per year.

why don't you build a shed?

probably cost you a couple hundred bucks and you can buy the book at home depot that'll walk you through it if you aren't wood savvy.

Something something building permit.

Little pricey, but cheaper than a shed, and it isn't permanent. Perfect if you have an apartment.

You could try storing it where you used to keep your manhood :p

I left my manhood in your wife, I will be visiting Austin, TX soon to take it out.

1. You suck. I want a Ruckus so bad but since I own a working scooter I can't justify it yet

2. It's a Ruckus. New England winter can be sheer fun on that thing.

4. It's OK to let them get wet.

Luckily, my g/f has a shed on the house she rents. My ruckus is now in winter storage over at her house right now. I generally keep it under a tarp in front of my house.

Oddly enough, the Ruckus has become quite the problem for renting a place next year. Most apartment buildings don't have storage sheds. :(

Ruckus...Why?

A 96 kawasaki ZX6R would be so much more fun. :banana:

Because a ZX6R requires a motorcycle drivers license and doesn't get 80mpg. Instead of getting something that impresses all the laydeez, I got a practical commuter... which is what I needed. ;)

I'm on totalruckus.com every once and a while. There's very little traffic there though. I'll check out ruckus central.

where are you in new england?

try www.lavalleys.com, they sell pre-built and delivered sheds of all sizes.

I am in North Shore Massachusetts. I will check what they have to offer.

thanks

Why do you keep arguing as if someone is trying to sell you on renting a storage container when no one every mentioned it? Tarp != container. :lol:

I just checked, and they have great sheds, but nothing that you'd be able to put up/take down with the seasons. But if you have a lawn tractor etc and need some more space...they're perfect.

(I have a little bias towards LaValley's, as I worked there for 7 years from when I was 14 until I was 21 during the summers, and my dad's a manager at one.) No I can't get you a discount.

tarp does not equal a container

The company that makes the all-weather pop-up shelters is called Shelter Logic.

They have some cool ones.
