95 fatboy

I have a 95 fatboy not riding much since I bought a 15 ultra. What should I do for storage?

I just revived a bike that sat for 9 years and it was fine sitting on the jiffy so my advice is crap.

Congrats on the new bike and don’t neglect the old one. Ride it occasionally to remind you how nice the new bike is lol.
