Away for a Month... Storage Tips...
Hello guys and I will thank in advance johnatan, Blaine, water warrior, 5th bike, alantf.. very very helpful..
Away for a Month and I need advice on the Storage as winter approaches... Winter is coming... I have my GZ, it runs great and besides the front break squeaking a little sometimes, everything is ok. I will be traveling saturday And I'll be gone for 1 month. I am in Jersey and temperatures are dropping. I read Blaine's instructions for storing the Bike for winter ( great guide btw http://gz250bike.com/forum/viewtopic.php?f=10&t=6884 ) Now My questions are these: I just changed the oil and the filter like 1 week ago, have the rags to cover the exhaust, I have the berryman I need a good chain lube brand? same question for fuel stabilizer? Now My bike will not be Garaged, I have it in a parking space but is open. I have a nice empire cover. So should I take the battery off for the month I am going to go away? ( I do have a battery tender ), and then when I come back I plan when temps are good, like once in a long while when they are in the 40's to ride... I just don't want to put it away for 3 months.. Last week, I rode at 42 degrees with wind and it seemed cold but with the gear I had on it was ok... only weak point were the gloves, which I returned after 4 days of buying them... The Revit H2o winter gloves, I mean If I am going to pay 89 bucks for some gloves they should not let my fingers freeze at 42 degrees... So, any pointers would be really appreciated, as I said, not garaged, and Going away for 1 month... thanks guys Login or Register to Remove Ads |
