Will the Raptors be OK outside for a few days with the temps at 18-ish degrees (Fahrenheit) and snow?
I pissed away the good weather and now the coldest temperatures in 30 years have set in - before I finished the shed. It's not yet insulated and has tarps for doors.
The coolant in the bottles hasn't froze so it would seem to make sense everything is OK but I don't have first-hand experience with storing quads in the cold.
You don't have a thing to worrry about. I've ridden mine in -20. It's stored in an un-heated garage. :thumbs:
You should be good to go man. Just fire them up everyonce in awhile to keep things lubed and let them run alittle bit
Cool. ... er, thanks (sorry for the pun).
its below -30 up here... i dont think you have anything to worry about...
It might be bad on the batterys as they dont like the cold,you could pull them

+1 batteries will take a beating trying to crank a cold engine when they are cold. I still have no trouble though.
Just crank them over once a week or so, you'll be fine.

Better keep those twins warm and toasty. They look a bit cold and rigid. :lol:
you shouldn't have any problems. Pulling the battery would be a good idea though.

for like 30$ you can get a battery tender which plugs into the wall and holds your battery at full charge without over charging. thats how i roll :grin_nod: in fact i plug it in in the summer when i leave it for a long time as well.
