Is there a way to prevent dry rot of my motorcycle tires while sitting in the garage throughout the winter?

Don't put anything on the motorcycle tires to protect them. Some of it will spill onto tread surface and then the tires are useless because they get so slippery.

I assume you're talking about real winter with snow, ice and cold. Not the Florida or southern California version of winter. I live in the Midwest where winters can get pretty cruel. I've been riding bikes for years (25+). I have always kept them in my garage over the winter. I store them with both tires raised off the concrete slab. That's it. I have never experienced dry rot.

first get the weight off the tires by lifting the entire bike off the ground. pam and baby oil work as does wd-40, crc, and kerosene. imported car companies used to coat the entire car with cosmoline, a wax to prevent rust or any type of oxidation. BUT, before riding it, make sure there isn't ant on the tread. you could apply the disired producr with a rag on the sidewalls to prevent anything from running onto the tread. also keeping sunlight off of them helps while in storage.

You want an answer............... Use a can of Pam or any cooking style oil in a can and spray it on your tires. Once your ready to ride your bike just make sure your use a nice dish washing liquid to take off the stuff. Want to do more?................ Spray down the entire bike and cover it up the best way you can.

Don't put anything on them. They should wear out long before they dry rot. Don't worry about it.

tires will age, its just the way rubber is, keeping it out of the sun helps more than anything.. if you are storing it.. get the tires off the concrete with a bike jack or something thats safe.

keeping it off the concrete can help, and put some tire cleaner on it, I dont like Armorall at all, anything with alcohol in it is a no no,

I would also call a tire shop and see what they recommend

Put pieces of plywood {about one foot squares} under the tires

Dont let it sit in the garage.

RIDE IT MAN!!!

I can understand if you have snow and ice but otherwise...just ride it.
