Be sure to drain the gas prior to storing it in your living space. Breathing in gasoline fumes while you are sleeping isn't a good thing...

When we were kids - my friend Les (LTR Suspension) had a game room downstairs in his home that they converted into a shop - we worked on his bikes inside the house for many years - he has a very, very cool dad...

Years later, both Les and his sister were diagnosed with M.S. - attacks the nervous system. I always wonder if this was somehow related to the gas fumes and chemicals we used in his house.

Hey, why not? I usually tear mine down during the winter, but its cold as hell here in my garage. Once the dirty work has been done, I'll roll it into the rec room with the pellet stove to do the clean work. My divorced neighbor is soon getting a Ducati Monster, and that will live in the house!

I see no problems keeping bikes in the house. Been doing it for years.
This one is ready to go minus the gas.

But I have kept a bike with gas in the tank and can not smell anything
when I come home. I hope there is no long term effects..long term effects...
Maybe I am just numb to the.........what were we talking about?!?!?!? Oh yea..
I love the smell of VP4.2 and Castor 927 in the morning....
Cheers, Jeff So. Cal.

You guys and wanting to keep your bikes inside Why not just do what me EX did.......set the garage up so you don't even have to come in ROFL

But I see know reason not to have it inside if need be...I have let my ex and my son do it many times....well before tha garage was done

Im having a little problem with the garage.

So some of the bikes gotta sit inside.
They take turns. Each one gets a couple
of weeks or so.

I can't believe your gasser is that far from the door.

If mine has fuel in the tank, I'll simply run the carb dry or drain it, and clamp the cap vent hose with a pair of hemostats. No problems. My wife doesn't mind me doing this so I can get a job done without freezing my ass off, but if she smells gas then it becomes a problem.

FYI, this also applies to Toy Haulers or enclosed trailers that you plan to sleep in.

The only problem I see is that old Ford truck taking up room for more bikes.
