My dad has an Airchamber for the RS500.
Works really well and good durable build quality.

Absolutely no idea.
The structure is supported by tent poles, so it doesn't need a fan to keep it inflated or anything.
However, there is a fan and it can be plugged in if required.
I'd imagine it costs pennies as its only a little fan.
Edit: My dad thinks he remembers reading its between £20-30 a year to run if its plugged in.

My friend had his car in a carcoon for a few years and it managed to keep it fresh as a daisy. I think they are cool.

The good thing with a carcoon is they keep the air moving so moisture can't settle. I've had a CB750/4 in one for about 15 years now.

Thats cool. Nice wheels too, but they're not BBS LM copies. They're more like BBS RS.

Looks amazing in the last pic with the BBS, I'd love a trike as a toy.
