Hey guys-
It's been a while since I've posted, but I'm glad to be back! I've got a storage conundrum that I could use your help with:
I'll be headed out of town for 10 days and, unless anyone in Auburn, Ala. has a garage they want to let me use, I'll be needing a place to leave my bike.
I'd prefer not to leave it outside, since the town will be empty for Spring Break, and I don't really want to pay a storage place. I've talked to my mechanic about it, but he doesn't have much room and would have to charge me unless I'm having some work done.
That brings me to my question: Is there any problem with storing the bike inside? I would obviously give it a good cleaning first and lay some newspaper down, but I wouldn't want to drain the tank or anything. I'm mainly worried about fumes. I also won't be running the A/C while I'm gone, so there'll be no air circulation.
Has anybody done this before? I've searched but don't see anything. I just know I'll get hell from the girlfriend if we come back and the whole place smells like 93 octane and 10w-40. Thanks!
