Need some advice and informative ammunition. I live in a condo with no garages, therefore the 2016 Harley Tri Glide must stay outside in the parking lot exposed to the elements. We keep it covered every night with either a half-cover when the weather is nice, or a full-cover during bad weather or when we're gone for several days. Last week, my Home Owner's Association board passed a new rule to disallow covers on all vehicles, for a variety of reasons, primarily for snowbird owned cars with covers that are parked and covered for months at a time. However, the rule that was passed was a very broad ALL vehicles. So now, my property manager has suggested I submit a letter next week stating all the legitimate reasons why motorcycles should be covered. Living in swampy Florida with a lot of wildlife and occasional storms, along with water sprinklers and theft prevention issues, some of the reasons we will list are fairly obvious. What I'm hoping to get from someone here are explanations or documentation of long-term damage caused by leaving a motorcycle uncovered for extended periods of time. Any help anyone can add to my list would be greatly appreciated.
