Motorcycle column rule: riding at highs of 58°F to 97°F; cold or hot riding from a 46°F high or above 97°F; stored below 46°F.
By that rule a motorcycle at Anchorage has 3 months riding (June to August), 2 of cold or hot riding and 7 stored. By that rule a motorcycle at Fairbanks has 4 months riding (May to August), 1 of cold or hot riding and 7 stored.
Alaska is severe-freeze country for a motorcycle: Fairbanks averages -17.2°F on January nights and about 113.8 nights a year at or below 0°F, so full winterization is mandatory and heated space is worth pricing.

NOAA's 1991-2020 median first 32°F night is October 1 at Anchorage and September 13 at Fairbanks; winterize by August 30, two weeks ahead of the earlier date. By our motorcycle rule Anchorage stays riding through August and Fairbanks through August, then 2 months of cold or hot riding follow at Anchorage. 17 Alaska listings offer indoor or climate-controlled space.
7 at Anchorage (September to May) and 7 at Fairbanks (September to April), plus 2 and 1 months of cold or hot riding. Those stored months hold 77.2 of the 77.9 inches of snow Anchorage averages a year (99%), which is the load on a cover or carport roof. At Anchorage a motorcycle is riding from June to August (3 months), against 4 at Fairbanks.
Of 25 live Alaska listings, 17 list indoor space and 0 climate-controlled units, against 17 outdoor and 0 covered. By city: Anchorage (25 listed, 17 indoor). Most indoor listings: Anchorage (17). Ask whether indoor means heated; listings span 1 city in all.

After the last frost. The median last 32°F night is May 5 at Anchorage and May 13 at Fairbanks; the last 28°F hard freeze comes around April 22 and May 4.
