Dear
Bike Barn people,
Greetings
from the home of the world's greatest road
races! I ordered my Bike Barn motorcycle cover last Friday (8 days
ago), and it was delivered Thursday (a day earlier than the UPS tracking
promised). After a week of good weather, today of course it was raining
stair rods and blowing a gale - the old cover had blown clean off
the bike. I was able to assemble the frame in my living room, and
then lift it outside to put the tent on. The whole exercise was accomplished
in under two hours despite the gusting wind, and it only took
that long because I had to redo a couple of bolts because I'm an idiot!
This is easily the most cost-effective bike
shelter I have seen, and if it will work in the wind and rain
here (I live on top of a very exposed hill near the sea) it will work anywhere.
I will be recommending the Bike Barn to everyone I
know who keeps their bike outside. Both your service and your product
are outstanding - many thanks.
I should add that we had 80 mph winds here
last night, and the Bike Barn tent didn't even move!

WOW!
I just got my Touring Model Bike Barn cover last night
(incidentally, the same day I was hired for a new job AND I proposed to
my girlfriend. Then I come home and find a present waiting!). We're expecting
our first snow showers of the season this weekend, so I decided that today
(Friday) was do or die. I got started around 4:00 and finished around 5:30.
A little longer than I thought it would take, but I wasted a good 20
minutes looking for parts that I thought had been
left out of the shipment. Then I realized I was
an idiot and they were right in front of me. So,
after getting over my own stupidity, I was able to complete assembly relatively
easily.
It definitely helps to have a second set of hands to help steady the
steel tubes when you're attaching them. I immediately put my FatBoy in
when I finished. It fits perfectly, even with the saddlebags and windshield.
I'm thrilled!!
I used to have a standard bike cover that secured
with bungee cords. We had a blustery day 2 weeks
ago, and a 68MPH gust caught the cover like a
parachute and tipped my bike over! Luckily, no
serious damage. But, that is what lead me to
this wonderful product. With the Bike Barn there's no wind problems here! Less $$$ than 4 months
of winter storage, plus I can use it year-round.
This is the best investment I've made for my
pride and joy. BUY ONE NOW!!
