Leave the effing thing outside, saves you the bother of taking it in and out the garage

If your being serious , that's complete bologna .
OP , under 50 % your doing well . Some folks have alot of spare cash to dispose of on such machines . Commend you on trying not to be wasteful .

Went Shopping (like everyone else did today! Hel-lo ye last minute pickers!)

Anyway....I stopped in at Home Depot and bought 3 of these in 4lb. size: http://t.homedepot.com/p/DampRid-64-oz- ... 100391308/
Two buckets of this moisture/odor remover for my full sized basement, and one for my single car garage. I've had them in the basement in the past and they seem to work. Hopefully it will help moisture levels during WN's winter rest. At $10.00/each I'll see what it's really worth soon enough.

I have a 70 pint dehumidifier running year round in the basement (walk-out 2300 sq ft) but it basically turns off in the fall/winter with the heater running since the humidity falls below 40%. I really need a humidifier in the winter because the stained wood (doors, hardwood floors, inside of windows, trim, etc. sometimes gets a bit dry throughout the house. The basement is low too. The 3- car garage still varies by the weather even though it is insulated and dry-walled with a vapor barrier but generally things stay pretty dry if I leave the doors closed most of the time. Right now the inside of my house (main floor) is 27% humidity and it is raining outside (also 2300 sq ft). Maybe the heater runs too much.

What kind of humidity readings are you seeing.

Not sure what you mean but yes, I am perfectly serious.

What the hell are you talking about?

Cheap disposable utility vehicle?

You're talking about a Honda Lead, or one of those crappy little Peugeot scooters.

The PCX is at the high- end of the market for 125 scooters. The only step up from a PCX is the current Yamaha Xmax 125.

If the scale is 1-10 for luxury, with 1 being your Honda Lead, and 10 being your Yamaha Xmax, the PCX is an 8, or a 9.

I love my cheap disposable utility vehicle. Oh, damn the humidity in my garage!

We shift our scooters between our basement and our carport. They don't seem any worst for wear. We bought a cover for one of them. We park them head to toe at the back of the carport, with the one that is most exposed getting the cover. If the weather forecast is bad for an extended amount of time, we bring them into the basement. I cheat on that a bit. The basement is heated and air conditioned. Great place for me to work on the bikes.

My one just sits in a wooden shed with a sh1t load of acf50 on it in the winter and it's fine.

(The acf50 on the bike not the shed)

^^ Good that you cleared that up for us Ali, others may say....WHAT!!
Sensitivity levels are at an all time high. I think it's the Holidays bringing it on. Ya think? Funny how that happens at this time of year. The tides? Moon? Stars out of alignment? Don't know.
I say, "Let it snow, let it snow, let it snow! (ONCE will be enough though. thanx)

So where's the Cheer? I already found the dang humidity
Pic of ACF50 can for all ye to see (be liberal)

I sprayed ACF-50 on some of my homebuilt airplane components (sat out in a nasty damp hangar) and trailer hitch hookups for years. Works great. I switched to using a Liquid Wrench version of the same thing because it dried better (Dry Lube). I think they all work pretty well but the dry doesn't stick to dirt so much. They basically displace moisture. Then there is "Moo Slick".
