Hi all. New motorcycle owner here (Royal Enfield, Scram 411). Unfortunately I won’t be around my motor for four months. I was wondering what I could do protect it against the effects of time. Its parked indoor, but maybe I should still put it underneath a cover? Any tips, suggestions?
OPs bike is FI and the “start it regularly” advice is an old “wives tale”.
Start it regularly is absolutely NOT an old wives tale if your bike is carbureted and you use regular fuel with ethanol in it. Had I done that from time to time, the ethanol fuel would not have gummed up my carb and I would have not had to spend hours dismantling and cleaning it out.

Just close the petcock and drain the bowl.
At least we can agree that conservatives are shitbags
Ain’t that the goddamn truth, comrade.
