ususlay the stabilizer if its going to be down for a while, more than 6 weeks take out the battery and put it on a tender, with my own garage now I can leave it in the bike. Put it on the center stand and maybe this year throw a cover on it.

I don't have to do this anymore (my bikes stay warm and toasty over the winter
) but for ultra cold storage:1. Drain carbs (if you have carbs, otherwise no, cause you'll spend forever looking for the drain screw). 2. Fuel stabilizer/top off tank. 3. Fresh oil, overfilled as much as possible, (condensation in the cases leads to rusty bits, so I just "pickle" the bottom end in oil). You may want to leave yourself a note... 4. Get the tires off the concrete. If you don't have stands, park on plywood or thick cardboard. Tires and frozen concrete is not a happy combo. 5. Pull the battery, store it someplace warm with a tender on it. 6. Remove seat, place in closet. Foam and vinyl don't like prolonged freezing. 7. Plug exhaust (if you have mice). 8. Sit around and bitch until MotoGP comes back on. JC

Yeah we don't mind letting these types in. I don't winterize since I ride most of the year. Also since my garage is part of my walk-out basement and partially underground it never freezes in there. If the garage doors are closed it never seems to drop below 50 plus it stays cooler in the summer than outside temps. |

always put in your gas additives at the gas station prior to filling tank. This ensures that as you fill the tank they are adequetly mixed. Also, no reason to pull a battery if you are putting on a tender. The tender will keep any harm from happeneing to it. |
