Hopefully not a derby.

Now that's cool!
Nothing like sleeping inside with your bike and the smell of oil.
They need to bottle that smell and sell it.

Yeah, and if the temp drops you can just fire up the bike and use it as a heater. If you drink enough tequila before going to sleep you won't even notice the headache.
Huh, and to think We used to just stretch a tarp over the bike, like a pup tent, and for about $12.00 had a dry sleep... or at least the bike did,I was usually passed out in the bush somewhere ;D
Beat ya to it!

Looking at the post times it would seem the OP beat you to it. ;)

I'm guessing you're supposed to shut the bike off first! :P

the CO would help you sleep too, waking up is the issue.

What you got to say now? ;D
You are, however, correct about placement.
This made the rounds on advrider.com a while back. To avoid most of the problems mentioned above, just move the bike in after it's cool. My problem with the tent is that's it's $400.
But my bike doesn't stink. Only Ducati owners expect bikes to smell like burning oil. ;D My BMW only smells like sauerkraut and the tears of orphaned infants.
I know that when I had my bike inside the motel room it started smelling like my garage in there. I would guess this would smell the same way but with the added smell of tent.
