How do you store your bike in winter?

The track bikes will get stabil and the battery will go on a tender, either in the bike or in the house, gotta love the attatched garage

the aprilia will go on a charger for any lon gperiods of downtime but may or may not throw in fuel stabilizer, I figure Iwill get those couple of winter rides in and will refill the tank each time.

The biggest difference is that we are storing in winter. He's storing in 90*+ heat. Could just leave the gas fill poped open.

Yeah, and cover it with some cloth and a zip tie or something to keep the crap out.

Yeah there ya go. But I didn't mean all the way open. You know when you push down the lid/cap... and it latches but not completely closed... yeah like that.
