The
floor has been a hot topic for non-contact motorcycle
covers. The Bike Barn motorcycle cover researchers looked into the
floor idea 6 years ago and found that the floor
did not deliver as was intended.
First off sealing the bottom of the cover eliminated
convection air flow that is the trademark for these
vented drive in motorcycle covers. Hot moist
air was not allowed to rise since no cool make up
air was coming in to replace it. The moisture did
not vent and condensation resulted.
Secondly, the area under the Bike Barn motorcycle cover is
bone dry – the ground did not get wet since the
tent kept the water off. So a floor did not do much.
Third,
plastic tended to rot from laying on the ground
all the time especially with no air circulation
underneath it.
We
wanted to avoid all these problems and we have
– with our multi-lock system. This ventilated
floor will keep things up off the ground but
still allow air circulation so that moisture
can escape. Another good idea from your friends
at the Bike Barn. |
