Bike Season Over?

Maybe. At least the regular season cruises, riding to work, and Patriot Guard missions. I'll still do the missions, but using my truck. While there are a few of us that ride occasionally through the winter, I still need to prep "The Beast" to sit for longer periods of time. Yesterday afternoon I took her out to the local gas station for a fill up. I grabbed my jug of Sta-Bil 360 which stabilizes the gas and treats the ethanol. I pour the appropriate amount in the tank and then add the new gas to mix it well. Instead of going straight home, I went a few extra miles to make sure the treated fuel was in the entire EFI system. Plus it wasn't too cold so I got a little ride in. When I got home, the bike went up on the center stand and onto the Battery Tender. Later today I'll give it a good cleaning, put it on the front wheel stand, and cover it up. She'll be ready to ride at a moments notice, or continue the winter slumber undisturbed.
