Winterizing

[Artie640]

I have a 2006 Heritage Softail that I bought last spring. I want to put it away for the winter. I plan on changing the oil and filter and putting fuel stabizer in gas tank. It will be in my garage untill spring, is there any thing else I should do?

Install battery tender if you do not have one installed.

Sad to have riding season coming to a close, but our days are numbered here in NE too...

I have never had a problem, YET. Of course during the winter months I am always fooling with it (cleaning, inspecting, etc.) so it is on and off the jack all the time.

Might be a good idea to do the "complete" oil change to get all the old oil out of the engine for winter. Good write up in the self-help section.
