Battery tender, stabil, and a breathable cover should do it.

Take care, be safe and thanks for your service!

+1 to all above. I take it's not your first trip down range. Be safe, come back soon. Hopefully not a 365. Take something green with you.

Also, change your insurance to sorage insurance, it will save you some money. If you have USAA you can do it online.

Stay Safe...

Just got back from Iraq the past week... Was fortunate, the local dealer here (Thunder Tower Harley) stored the bike for free while deployed. Dropped them an e-mail before I returned and they take care of getting it ready. But, if you're going to store it at your house, leave it on the trickle charger and put a cover over it.

Stay Safe!

I've got a battery tender on mine right now. R&R coming up in July. I want to be able to walk up to it and fire it right up.. Battery Tender is the way to go.
