Winterize / Winter storage
I run the tank low on my last ride, fill up a couple of blocks from home ( so I have the freshest gas I can from the start), add stabilizer, ride it home. Next day when it's cool, check all fluids and tires, plug in the trickle charger. Washed and waxed of course. I do ride it occasionally when the weather permits and it's not freezing out. ( Top off the tank on return ).
Spring time - change the fluids, take it for a long ride to burn up the fuel and start the season with a fresh tank.
I've been doing this with my bikes for over 30 years now and have yet to have any trouble. I'm guessing your winter might be a little colder than what we have in NY but I think it will work!

I use Stabil in my lawn mower and that’s it.
Top off gas tank ,plug in my charger, cover the bike up and
go to bed, sleep until spring.
I was told additives were not needed in FI motors.
Works for me for years.
