If you keep it covered, use a bed sheet or something that will not trap condesation under the cover. Never cover it with a plastic tarp.

Better yet, bring it into the bedroom. Put the plastic tarp on the floor under it, just in case.

Seriously, if you store it outside in a shed, stick a rag up into the exhaust to keep critters (mice, bugs, etc) out, not nesting in there. Leave a length of the rag sticking out so you don't forget you jammed it in there for storage, 'cause you won't be able to start the bike in the spring if it's still in there.You'd be surprised at what makes a nice nest in something like an open pipe.

Just got my license at age 52. It's never too late to have a happy childhood!

Growing old is mandatory, growing up is optional.

Exactly!

When I open the garage and see that little black & chrome beauty waiting for me, I'm instantly 17 again, minus the insecurity and angst.

Now I know why so many motorcyclists are "of a certain age!"
