Remove the fuel tank and they go into the laundry room empty and the caps open. About Mar I hook up to the battery tender and get the battery up to snuff........and ready to ride
And in close I would like to Thank all you American Vets
All my fellow Canadian Vets and British Vets....and all Vets who fought for their country.

Still, I like to try and ride my bike at least one day a week, but truth be told I ride my big bike cuz the Drifter just doesn't have the protection from the elements I need to stay alive in this weather. So I'm going to winterize my Drifter this year--even hook up the trickle charger--and do some other things as well. I plan on keeping the tank full of non-ethanol gas for one thing, and I've already completely cleaned up the bike for another. What else do you guys recommend? For us here in W. Washington it's not like we're snowed in or anything, it's just mostly several days of rain, then there'll be a break where a guy can get out there and take maybe a half hour ride just to circulate the oil, then put her away for another week or so. This normally continues until March-April time frame. Anyway, sorry to ramble but just figured I'd break the relative silence and throw a question out there. And for you US Vets--thank you for your service!
