Any Triumph enthusiasts in the Seattle/Tacoma area that might be able to help me out? I'll try to shorten this up a bit:
I'm a fire Helicopter Pilot, I've stashed my chopper (rotory wing aircraft, not OCC ) in the Seattle area, hopping a jet home to Idaho to ride the Scrambler with some buddies back out to Seattle. When I get back to Seattle I need a spot to store my motorcycle for a few weeks while I fly the helicopter back to Ketchikan Alaska and finish out the season up there. I'll then fly back to Seattle on good ol Alaska Air and pick up my baby and cruise on home to Idaho. How's that for complicated.........
Any help or ideas are much appreciated.
Thanks gents and gals.
Chuck
PM me if you would rather. Gracias!

Try PMing Rodburner...he's in Tacoma. But, knowing Rodburner, he just might make a few nice changes to your bike while you're gone.

Thanks for the potential help with storage folks! Man, it sure is nice to know folks are willin' to pitch in. I'm considering renting a storage unit for $80 per month which is literally across the street from the airport at which I have the chopper parked. Super convenient and wouldn't be putting anyone out.

Thanks again and if I panic I'll get in touch!

storage units can be pretty cool. I'm renting one right now not a mile from my house. I'm wrenching on the bike there, it's airconditioned, I don't have to pick anything up b/c it's never in the way, and no one will steal anything. Costs me $100 a month, not cheap enough to keep forever, but it's nice to work on the bike in the a/c in the meantime.

Here in MN I rent a mini-storage unit for the winter.
In the summer I keep my bike at home and just leave the car on the driveway; but in our -20F winters I must keep my car in the much warmer garage.
So my bike goes into storage a couple miles away.

My 5x10' unit costs $34/month.
This winter I'm going to go to a 8x10' for about $12 more so I can store my current '84 Shadow and my new, not-yet-delivered 2007 T100.
