Is leaving my bike stood for a while going to do any harm?
#10
Some good advice already given although I think optimisers arn't a good idea over the long term (I'm also sure they ruin batterys). And of course starting it up occaisionally doesn't do it any good at all.
If I'm laying up a bike I usually top up the tank and add fuel preserve tablets/fluid, drain the carbs, get the weight off the tyres, oil the chain and put the battery indoors -and charge it up every couple of months, if I remember lol. I also cover the bike in a cotton sheet, (plastic encourages condensation) And that's it.
