Oh, and keep the tank as full as possible. The more gas in the tank(less air) the longer it takes to go bad.

 

Never heard starting it once a week was bad... not arguing, just never heard that.

What condensation are we talking about? I'll fire mine up and take it down to a gas station to keep her full even if I have to store it. I'll use my dad's garage for storage and he's about 4 miles from fuel.

The bike lives on the suspension 24/7 mostly so I never thought about getting the weight off. If I have to put mine up this winter, my front stand will take the weight off, but the back will still be under weight.
