How do I winterize my bike, same as how I summerize it, I ride it. Winter here is just colder and wetter than summer no snow and rarely below freezing. If it's wet, it stays home.
35deg C (95F) and sunny today, it's the end of spring and summer is just around the corner.
Crazy weather and so much for global warming.

In Georgia, just swap out the race coolant for premix anti-freeze and hook up the battery tender. I still get plenty of days to get out and ride so its never a full hibernation here.

This makes me chuckle because of all the 'fair weather' riders down in these parts. I know that most of you northern folk would love to have our current weather conditions, yet the large majority of the locals here think it's too cold, or too wet to ride when we get a little taste of 'wet winter weather'.
If it ain't floodin or freezin, I'm ridin ...
I sit out in the garage and pout dejectedly beside it while drinking copious amounts of single malt scotch and the heat from my drunken body keeps it warm all winter.
Here in Texas we can pretty much ride all year, but I go away for a couple of months in Dec/Jan, and again in Jul/Aug. I just hook it up to the Battery Tender, fill the gas tank and put in 5 ozs. of Yamaha Fuel Med Rx to stabilize and neutralize the baddies in the fuel that want to corrode things. Corrosion from ethanol is a bad thing on a long term basis. Starts right up when I get back with about 1/2 second of cranking.
