The only thing i am unsure of is draining the carbs. i also can't find any info on how to perform an oil change but i was curious if i need to drain the carbs in order to winterize it properly

Thanks

 

I would put fuel stabilizer in the fuel FIRST before you drain your carbs. Depending on how much fuel you already have in your bike, you figure out how much of the stabil to put in. Then run the bike for about 5min to let that circulate through the fuel system. Then you can drain your carbs if you want. its not necessary once the stabil is in there, just personal preference. Keep your battery on a tender and yer all set. I would change the oil too so the particles in the oil dont settle out and collect at the bottom of the motor. I guess when yer runnin the stabil in the fuel, now would be the time to change the oil since the oil is nice and hot. Always change yer oil with a warmed up motor.

 

Winterizing here means wearing warmer clothes.

 

Agree, Deejer^. Mike, get out and ride. Good for you and good for your bike.

 

Yea its easier just to ride it haha. Even if I dont ride my stuff I try to start everything twice a month and put a battery charger on them for a few hrs every now and then.

 

Ha. i'll go buy some winter tires right away
