Default Winter Storage

Well, unfortunatley its about time for me to put my bike away for the winter. It was a great season, and the 636 was my first bike. I heard that there was some sort of a device you can buy to hook up to your battery so it doesn't run out while the bike is dormant. Do you guys know anything about this? Thanks.

I have heard about that battery device however I don't know anything about it. What I do is start my bike up about once a week to let it run and I also put in some of that stabilize stuff for the fuel.

Very nice! LOL

If my room weren't upstairs I'd be right there with you. Of course my house also has a couple steps to get in the front door too. So sadly for me my baby sits in the garage all lonely. However thanks to living in So. Cal I do ride every day so not so bad but still wish I had her stored in the house.
