I've had the bikes in the garage for several weeks now. The weather has been fair up until the past couple of weeks and now it is pretty cold. A guy could still ride if he bundled up, but I'm not that guy. I need to go out and put some Sea Foam in the tanks and run a little through the carbs so they won't gel up over the winter. I know that a lot of people like to drain them all the way down but I try to start the bikes a few time during the winter just to keep things wet and batteries fresh.
I've taken the battery out over the winter before and brought it in the house to keep it from freezing but I've found that they still die. I would like to get a battery Tender and then just switch it from one bike to the other every couple of weeks. It would make them easier to start and help keep the batteries fresh.
This winter might be a good time to start the '78. I am heavily considering stripping it and making a naked wing out of it. I can see a lot of potential in that pile of dust.
