I pull the battery if I'm not going to run it.  I also drain the fuel.

You could buy a battery tender, use 91 octane since it shouldn't have ethanol in it & use Sea Foam in the fuel.

i have my 4x4 for the deep snow, and also i dont feel like riding when its -40 out

disco

I myself need to buy a battery tender or two.  Two quads and a riding mower.  It's heck getting them started after they've been sitting, the batteries really don't like it.  I have some fuel stabilizer, time to get that stuff out.

No snow down here but it rained all day yesterday, it's been raining all day today and tomorrows forecast is. . . more rain!  (groan)
mostly stock with a 12t sprocket of fury

We had a shitload of rain yesterday, so far overcast all day today.
