Storage advice?

[Wildkid]

Got my bike up on stands for the crappy weather and it's on a trickle charge, any other advice people could give me to store it? How long should I trickle it for etc...?


Thanks

How long are you 'storing' it for?

[Wildkid]

Only until like next month/ February

Nothing. Keep the tank full. I wouldn't really say you are storing it. Just keep the trickle charger on it and leave it.

i really wouldn't about anything for less than 4 weeks. If its nearly due a service, do it. Brim the tank with fuel.

Is it inside, or out in the weather?

[Wildkid]

Inside in a garage, I'm guna service it next week and brim the tank

[DJ123]

in the garage it'll be fine. Why aren't you riding it, have you become a girl ;) it's meant to be decent(ish) weather tomorrow and Tuesday

[Wildkid]

No it's down to funds and I get a years no claims in January so that's when I'm insuring it otherwise I would be out on it!

[DJ123]

ah fair enough. The GM will be having a ride out at the end of the month most likely, feel free to join us. A thread will be made for it nearer the time

[Wildkid]

Yeah don't worry I will be out, it's just going to suck getting to Guildford on the m23/m25 with next to no wind protection lol

[DJ123]

why use the motorway? there are other routes that are more fun from Crawley. Alternatively we meet en route

[Wildkid]

What other route would you suggest?

[Tomor]

Dorking Guildford a3 petersfield 272 to loomies?

[DJ123]

either A23, 0r A24 down to the A272. Then follow it West along to the Meon crossroads (Loomies)

That does look like a good route actually, id be dieing for breakfast by the time I got to you lot!

[DJ123]

Loomies does an ok brekkie, if not there is a MCD at Petersfield. Don't worry about google time, that journey is no more than an hour

[Wildkid]

Okay mate, I'm sure ill be out most weekends!
