Hi All
I am very lucky to be able to position my new Freewheeler between my cars in the garage but
unlike my previous two wheelers I am unable to roll the trike a few inches back & forth to avoid "flat spots"
on the tires. Does anyone over inflate their tires to prevent this and how much psi would you recommend? :confused:
Thanks for your input
Praying for an early Spring

With my two wheelers they would sit all winter in my garage all winter with the normal PSI's and never had a problem......Flat spots were a problem with nylon [Car] tires of years past......With my Trikes.....I ride all winter :Shrug:...
Jack stands?
The local Harley dealer has probably 200 bikes in winter storage.
I seriously doubt they move the bikes around during the winter.
I wouldn’t worry about flat spotting the tires.

Don't park them on concrete. Either park them on rubber mats, carpet pieces or 1/4" plywood.
The cold damp concrete causes problems.
Have never experienced flat spotted tires since they stopped being made with nylon. Even those smoothed out quickly after being driven a short distance and they were car tires.
Put stabil in, fill the tank, ride about ten miles, park the bike and plug in the battery tender. Done.
