personnally unless you have a perfestly dry garage/storage area, storing bikes over winter is not great.Cold /damop is your major battle

I find it better to try and get a decent run in every now and then, try and clean bike off after and tuck away till next blatt

there is mainly the need for keeping battery charged ( optimate/accumate etc etc ) keep fuel to a minimum, check bike over as per service prior to storage, oil well and then pine away all winter

you will need to do similar when out of storage

Take care
