Bob LaRosa reviewed proper storage and all aspects of storage whether it’s long term, short term or seasonal. He addressed batteries, fluids and proper protection from the elements for inside or outside storage. He reviewed possible tire damage due to improper storage and correct re-start up regardless of the length of storage. He also addressed questions at the end. Watch Now.
If I need to pull out the battery for winter lay up to trickle charge it at another location due to no power at the storage unit, should I leave the ignition switch to auxilary position or to on ,like when starting up the bike to run position ? or just leave it in straight off position .
Thanks David, Bob covered it and recommends the Off position.
When you start after long 4 month do you take off plug wires and crank first?
