Extended Storage

Off-season or extended storage of your snow bike requires preventive measures to aid against deterioration and to prolong the useful life of many components.

Cleaning and Preservation

Proper storage starts with cleaning, washing, and waxing the cowling, side panels, chassis, and plastic parts. Wipe down remaining surfaces with a damp cloth. Clean and touch up with paint any rusted or previously painted surfaces. Be sure that corrosive salt and acids are removed from surfaces before beginning preservation with waxes and rust inhibitors (grease, oil or paint).
The snow bike should be stored in a dry garage or shed, out of direct sunlight, and covered with a fabric snow bike cover. Plastic tarp may cause condensation to form and damage snow bike components.

Track and Suspension

Moderate track tension should be maintained during summer storage. The snow bike should be supported off the ground to allow the track to hang freely.
