79.1" wide at the fenders. That would be 6 1/2' wide, small enough to fit in a container.

My Father stores his in a shipping container over the winter. So it will fit with no trouble with the mirrors off, but he has to get in and out through the sliding window because the door wont open enough to let him out.
