Hi all. My bike is going to be going into storage for the winter. Whats the best way to store it, any hints and tips?
What does the stabiliser do buddy?
Why let tyres down a bit - wont that just add to deforming the shape if left with weight on it. Maybe not so bad with a centre stand as the back is off the ground and there is only a bit on the front I supose.And why not ride in the winter - there are plenty of good dry days to be had
I usually try and start mine up and let it run until the fan cuts in every 4 to 6 weeks in the winter if the bike is not used and then once its cooled cover it over with some old velvet curtains (no tassels)Andy
one would assume its because the tassels might damage the paintwork? either way, sounds like a bit of kinkiness to me.
best thing to do is drain the carb bowls so they dont foul with crap fuel. Then when you bring it out of storage (if its a couple of months or more), change the oil and put fresh fuel in. As long as the battery is good then it should be fine.
Ok yes breathable cover sounds good, there are some on e bay for less than £20. Any suggestions / recommendations?
Don't know how ye can park it up for months. Haven't had mine for the last week so I've been swerving through traffic on the bicycle to get my fix
