I've been riding a looooong time and have simply changed oil and filter at the end of the season, filled up the tank with fresh gas and Stabil, made sure the tire pressures are up, and parked it. Most winters here I can still get out now and then, and if I use up the "stabil gas" I fill up at the end of my ride and retreat. As for moisture in the oil during long periods of sitting, ride the dang thing 100 miles or so and it's ALL GONE, and you still have reasonably fresh oil. Heat burns the impurities out of motor oil.....Just RIDE it! Oh, I DO go ride it for a mile or 2 after adding stabil to make sure it's completely through the system.
