Winter Storage

Fabric Softener Sheets, There used in Clothes Dryers.

And somebody noticed that mice don't like the way they smell or taste? That's an incredible observation! :roflblack:

Some marketing genius noticed that mice weren't buying them in the grocery sotres... :roflblack:

I rode all last winter. I hope I never have to stop riding it long enough that it needs any storage prep. It is garage kept but I have never even used a battery tender and it always starts never a problem. Me and my wife both have the gerbing heated jacket liners and love them. They work great. Actually we're going on a 3 day trip this weekend with 3 other couples and the low here Sat morning when we leave is supposed to be 28 degrees. :yes:Going to the American Royal BBQ in KC and then over to Weston, MO to stay in a B&B. Let the good times roll.

Winter starting

:agree: with what Scotty said; but I'd also add that if you can start and warm the bike up fully every couple of weeks... :2thumbs:
I like to keep the fluids circulating a bit during the "Dark Spell"... :thumbup:

If you just run long enough to warm up the system it will draw moisture after it is turned off. :lecturef_smilie:

Count me in the "ride all winter" crowd, thank goodness. Of course, winter in DC is three months of rain and two weeks at most of snow, so it's not like it's that big of a challenge.

It might be; if the rain turns to snow and ice at an inopportune moment! :yikes:

Not planning to winterize it; I bought it to extend my riding season on the days it's too slippery to take the two wheelers out. At most, plug in the battery tender and the tires aired up for such days.

My Tri Glide will go in 4 inches of snow [carefully] no problem just easy on the front brake.
Ice, nothing melts ice except the salt spreaders. :yikes:

Where in SE MI

:agree:, too! But I've managed to ride at least once every month since 2004 ... and that's in Michigan. We don't get the snow in SE Michigan that Scotty gets, but we get the cold. Nonetheless, it's refreshing, invigorating and a neat escape to dress warmly and get out on the bike for 10-20 miles. Good coffee halfway through, or when you get home makes it all worthwhile.

Where in SE MI are you ?????? I am in Harrison Twp nr Crocker & Metro. :clap:

4 inches of snow...
BRP makes Ski Doos for those sort of riding conditions...
