Leave it plugged in all Winter. It has special circuitry to make sure it doesn't over-charge or cook your battery. As far as the gas stabilizer, not only do you need to add it to the tank but you need to run it through the EFI as well which means ride the bike after you add it for a good 15-20 minute ride minimum. You don't need to keep it plugged in all winter if you need the outlet. But a week on and a week off would suffice.
