can't see it being an issue. used to winter my Harley in mine until I found a nice heated garage to keep it in.

with 2 quads you might want to block up the unit to take some weight off the tires and/or suspension.

I did all the time when we had ours. No need to block it up, far less wear and tear then bouncing down the road

Should be no problem and you might as well put that thing to as much use as you can and garage is a natural. I put the stabilizer jacks down over winter now as the camber went out of my rear axle over a seven year period with nothing but the weight of the trailer. City spring had to do an alignment ($150) and told me that is a fairly common occurrence. Takes no effort to use your jacks to take some weight off the axles and springs. Besides, if you are like me, you did not notice anything amiss until you are on the road so you go the rest of the trip watching one of your tires scrub away....

O ya jacks down good point. Just wondering if the gas odors would maybe make it stinky in there with warm and cold days ?

Shouldn’t be any gas odours if it’s efi. Might be some if it’s a carb job. Never hurts to crack a vent if you have those covers over them.

I leave an outlander and a Ktm 2 stroke in there all year round; no issue at all. The only worry is thieves breaking in when they are left in there

Ya maybe i will just drain the gas to make me feel better haha. Thanks for the input guys. This will give me alot more space to work on the sleds in winter.

Don’t keep the gas tank full, that’s the only time I had issues on a real hot day
I used to leave the gas a few bars under full on my EFI machines
