Now that we are getting into the colder and damper weather we need to think about how to protect our bikes during storage. For many years I have used small dehumidifiers on my boats, and then one day I got the bright idea to use the same ones under my motorcycles. I store my bikes in an aluminum shed with a wood floor. The bikes are always covered, with a battery charger attached, StaBil in the fuel, and an 18" GoldenRod under the bike. GoldenRods come in various sizes. Here is some more information on them . . .

If it's going to be a long storage period I put in fresh oil and filter. Take good care of your ride, and it will take good care of you ~
