Was charging it up today for a run and the heavens decided to open up, so straight back in she went :( Image

Smart trickle charger. Wheels off floor. Lube all exposed moving bits, locks etc. Absorbent inside cockpit (calcium chloride, ebay it). Polish paintwork. Silicone on HT leads. Breathable cover. Handbrake off, not in gear (thrust bearing will stick if you do). Umm, not on a hill either. Hope that helps. Great care when you restart her, hydraulic tappets might rattle a bit. Brakes will probably stick as well. Fluids all absorb water. First tank of gas 97 not 95 RON. Redex too. Whole lotta work to do it right. Drive gently for a coupla hundred miles.
Don't just go wild with WD40 and hope for the best. Even Hondas need proper layup prep
