Help! secure overnight parking Manchester city centre

All

I need to stay overnight in manchester [i'm from south wales] next week and i'm planning to ride the bike up - 1200 sporty. it needs a 1k service so can tie this in with the business trip etc

anyone advise on where best to leave the bike overnight - i don't think the hotel has parking. i've always parked the car in the ncp above the bus station.

any advice would be really welcome

thanks!!

Why not ask the dealer if you can drop off one day for service and pick up the next? Possible you have a late meeting finishing well after they've closed etc.....

Go to a Fire Station and ask for the watch commander and say you are in the job at........................

Then can you leave your bike there overnight?

....ha ha done it all over the country at the local airports.

All they do is EMT the petrol tank drain any oils and take the wheels off (Liverpool Only)........

...........Then that reduces the fire hazard.
