    Hey everyone, what month or time of year do you guys usually put your bikes away until next season? This is for the peeps who don't ride year round.

    I put stabalizer in after first snowfall, keep the battery charged and put it on rear stand with full tank of fuel. That way if I want to take it out, its ready.

    I put mine away after the first road sanding.

    Last year it was late October, some years not until mid Dec.

    I stop commuting by bike around Thanksgiving. The road and tires genreally remain too cold for decent traction in the mornings after Thanksgiving, so I do it for safety. I'll ride on any warmish sunny weekend day in the Winter though.

    I put it away sometime in November...when it just gets too damn cold for me to ride. Time for me to get heated grips.
