    I haven't parked a motorbike in town for a few years.
    Can anyone recommend safe on or off street parking within a few minutes walk of O'Connell street and Henry Street Junction.
    I've a selection of chains and locks but I've had bikes robbed in the past even with these and I want to avoid parking tickets too.

    There's motorbike parking on the road between the gpo and pennys just off O'Connell street.

    I havn't parked there myself but there always seems to be bikes there and there is usually a Guard around too

    It's the main cash route out of the GPO, plenty of Gardai and CCTV. Not that scumbags are worried about CCTV.

    Has he got valid insurance though?
    His bike might have mods, they may not pay out???

    I often park there. But one time a delivery guy stopped my topbox from being opened with a screw driver.

    Hi I've always parked up on paths or motorbike bays but suggest have at minimum 2 good lock and lock to a decent pole.

    If a path always make sure wide and use lamp post to fix to.and also help hide its space taken if you me.
