Stored in an enclosed trailer with vents open. I am in and out of the trailer several times a summer looking at and checking things. Always fog motors and grease chassies before storage. In winter the trailer is heated and sleds are melted and dry before we get home. Have to love a heated trailer.
 
Same as Dootimes. I use a heater in the trailer and de ice and dry them quick when I get home. Put the trailer at a steep angle so the water just pours out. Then I back the heat way down, it just needs to be a few degrees warmer than outside temp to drive the moisture out(learned this from storing guns in safes) but it's a little warmer than that just because. Keep the vents cracked so there is always some air flow, not a lot but some all the time. Another thing not related is I always use non-ethanol fuel and really try to keep the tanks full as much as possible so no water gets in the fuel system. I like to keep my stuff as nice as I can but use it to it's potential. I don't plan on keeping sleds for more than a couple years but I would never want to hand off a ball of krap to the next guy. I NEVER FORGET MY BOYS ARE WATCHING ME MORE THAN LISTENING TO ME...
 
Took the sleds OUT of storage this weekend and brought them up into the garage to begin prepping them for the season.

6 months out of the year they live down under the back porch.

my sleds stay in doors all summer. Albeit a tiny 1 car crappy garage, but it gets the job done. I would put everything else outside just to make room if need be. Someday the dream garage will go up and I will have room for every thing! :face-icon-small-hap
 
Sleds are inside the enclosed trailer and the trailer is stored inside our detatched garage.

I went ahead and voted for inside the trailer for this poll though.
 
Mine spend the summer stored outside but move into the garage for winter.
Jetski stays in garage during summer.:face-icon-small-win
 
Where I live is goverened by CCR's, I am required to store all motorized equipment inside unless it's and Airplane. I like it, if I buy something I have to store it inside, so my Motorhome, boat, utility trailer, 3 qauds, with four sled's stored on my fourplace trailer all reside inside.

Doe's wonders keeping all inside, great place to relax with all my toys. Only problem I have now is I don't have any more room for large size toys unless I get rid of a few or add on again to my shop :biggrin1:
 
My sled lives in the garage in the off season and when I'm working in winter. It travels in an enclosed when we're riding.
 
I keep mine in the shop and the trailer. Just depends but it NEVER sits outside. After each ride I bring it in the garage and thaw/dry it out. Even If I am riding the next day. Nothing beats getting on a dry sled in the morning.
I am currently working on my trailer so it will stay heated even while I am out riding.
 
Codes, covenets and restrictions, its not so bad, stops people from using old motorhomes as yard art or rentals.

My HOA also restricts out side storage.I agree its not so bad.
Lucky for me my friends let me store my off season stuff in their yards.

Ours stay in the trailer which is in the toy-barn. We have worked all of our lives to accumulate our toys and we have to take good care of them !!! >>>>.

Nice setup you got there. Hows that trailer pull without the axles. I would think it would be a bit tough on dry pavement. :)

I keep mine inside year around. I need more covered storage so I can use my shop in the summer when its plugged up with sleds, trailer and crap. Running out of room.

I suppose when the kids move out and I have a chance to get down to two sleds, two bikes, two fourwheelers instead of four of everything I will have more room. Maybe. :)

Ha Ha !! Look a little closer, the axles are under there!! I was servicing the brakes and the wheel bearings !!! And the all aluminum trailer is the only way to go >>>>.
 
Usually in the trailer which is in the shed. But now the trailer is full of goose decoys so the sleds are just in the shed.:face-icon-small-hap
 
My father and I keep all 7 of ours in our car port at the cabin. Place covers on put decon in the belly pan. Never had a problem with mice or critters. We also start them every month, not sure if that helps with critters but it might.
