Default About to de-winterize my bike...

Anything special in particular i should do? I am charging the battery right now on 2 amps/ slow charge. I will change out the oil...anything else you recommend?? I have a 98 zx6r. I've also heard that if the jets are somewhat clogged, seamfoam in the gas tank could do the trick?? Can anyone confirm this?

De-winterizing your bike just involves riding it. If you didn't use gas stabilizer, you might have a problem with varnished gas. Seafoam is an excellent product, and will likely unclog your jets if they're not extremely dirty.

Generally you want to change the oil just before winterizing it, but if you didn't, just change it out after your first ride of the season.
