Storing spyder

[SteveP]

No blocks but..

I don't store mine in my garage because it's full of much other stuff since I'm a contractor. I did build a platform from pallets with plywood on top for my Spyder and tractor . I just change the oil , put a little Stabil in the full tank , hook up a battery tender and put my outdoor cover on it . I also use a few bounce sheets in various places to discourage nibblers and move the bike forward or back once a month to roll the tires . Last year it was warm enough ( and roads clear) to go for a 30 kilometre Ryde in January.

Why 35 PSI

:agree:... But I DO pump the tires up to 35 psi at all corners, and roll the bike up onto some raised carpet pads.

I was wondering what is the purpose of inflating the tires to 35 psi :dontknow:

Sitting in the cold for extended time will cause the tires to lose a bit of pressure. It's just so the tires stay up to pressure. Chances are you'll need to actually let a bit of air out for the first ride in the spring, but that sure beats having a low tire that could potentially roll off the rim if it didn't get noticed

That was the only thing my brain could come up with as well, but I thought I would check just in case I'm not as smart as I believe!
