Has anyone been keeping theirs outside? I'm curious how it has been holding up in the weather. Thanks

I've had mine in my yard all summer - rain or shine. Seems to be holding up great. No noticeable problems or wear. I will put it away before the snow though.

I keep mine outside as well, much to my dismay, and that of my friends. The bike is stored in MA under this cover (and I've had a few other of this same basic cover for most of the last ten+ years. My bike still looks brand new, despite being a 1994 VFR750. Is it as good as a garage? No. But it does a great job at its intended purpose. When I wear this one out (just bought this new one last fall), I'll buy another.

I have mine outside, does great so far. Just like most thing, don't scratch the paint and it will last a long time, for the price you can't beat it.

I haven't had mine over 6 months yet. But mine is outdoors and under a carport. But so far so good. :)

Ours has been primarily outdoors as well and it seems to be holding up just fine. More than likely, though, you will end up needing to replace the rubber top more frequently if it gets a lot on direct sunlight.

Mine's been outdoors since I got it last year and it's been great. I live in Georgia and we did have some freezing temps but not in the sustained way you'd have up north.

I use mine outdoors for exactly that same reason. I only cover it when it rains. I got a small tarp and bungee cords to use as cover. I've only had it for the summer and its holding up great outdoors. I do plan to bring it in for the winter season. Hope this helps.

Mine has been outdoors since I purchased. It has weathered hail and storms with high winds. No damage and is still in great shape.

Yes. I've had mine outside, with some sun exposure, and it holds up just fine.

I've had them outside in CA Bay Area weather totally exposed for a year so far. The chromed steel is holding up well. Regards, JC

I keep mine outside but it is under cover of my overhang so it is not in the rain. Winter store it on garage and still use it when weather is nice

Hello, bought mine several months ago and it has been through rain, snow storms and ice storms and never missed a beat. Appears to be well waterproofed.

We left ours up outside for a month or so outside and it did not rust or get damaged. It seems pretty sturdy as long as you keep it staked into the ground..If you get alot of wind you may want to bring it in also.

I've used mine outdoors for a year with no issue. It appears to be a pretty weather tight unit.
