Winter Is Coming - Is Your Motorcycle Ready?

How to store your motorcycle for winter

• 

  Pick the Right Storage Spot

  Store your bike in a dry, dark, and secure place - ideally your garage or shed. Cover windows to block sunlight and deter thieves from peeking in. If storing for months, start the engine occasionally to keep it ready for spring.
• 

  Ride, Fill, and Stabilize

  Before storing, top up your tank to about 95% full and add fuel stabilizer to prevent rust and protect the engine. Go for a short ride to circulate the stabilizer through the system.
• 

  Clean & Protect Your Bike

  Wash your motorcycle thoroughly after your final ride to remove dirt and road grime. Let it dry completely, then apply wax or a protective coating to prevent rust and keep the fairings safe over winter.
• 

  Enable Theft Alerts

  If your bike isn’t stored at home, a Monimoto 9 tracker keeps it safe. It instantly alerts your phone if your motorcycle is moved, giving you peace of mind all winter long.
• 

  Remove & Charge the Battery

  Take out your battery and keep it on a trickle charger to maintain its charge over winter. This ensures your bike will start effortlessly when spring comes.
• 

  Cover & Lock It

  Wrap the exhaust and use a quality bike cover to protect against moisture, critters, and rust. Even indoors, add extra security with a steering lock, disc lock, or heavy-duty chain to keep thieves at bay.
