Storage Bike
Hello...
My name is David and I currently live in Anchorage Alaska and work in various locations across the state. My bike has been in storage for the past year and I am looking to fly down to Texas next month to hopefully ride her back up here. My question is after having been sitting for so long what will I need to do to get her road ready again? Thanks for any help.

Change fluids in engine, trans,and primary. Brake fluid change should be done also. Charge and test battery.check tires and pressure. check ligthts and anything else You can think of.

Well David, I'd say that if you stored the bike properly, it should be about as road worthy as it was the last time you rode it. You'll probably want to check the obvious stuff like battery condition, tire pressures, fuel stability, etc. If you didn't change oil before storing, that would be a must before heading up to AK.
