Really quick storage question as I just put my bike away for the winter (last winter I was working on it so I never ended up having this issue)

After filling and putting stabil in the tank should I turn off the gas feed from the tank and run the bike dry (no gas in lines/ carbs?) Or since there is stabil in the gas is it better to leave gas in the system? Thanks

 

generally, if its possible to remove the gas from the system, its better to do so. Im not sure if your bike has the bowl lines or not. If it does, its better to drain all of the gas out instead of just running it out. Running the engine until it stops doesnt remove all of the gas. The smaller the amount of gas there is, the higher the chances of it varnishing.

But then again, you have stabil in it, so it should be ok for several months. Just make sure the stabil has had a chance to run through to the carbs. Usually letting the bike idle for a few minutes will ensure the treated gas has made it to the carbs.

 

k, cool, I let it run for a good 10 min with the stabil in it. Thanks.
