Last year mine sat outside, uncared for and seized up (I live in the middle of Derbyshire, it gets cold here too), it started 3rd kick at Steve's with the "borrowed" barrel.

This year it will sit outside, not seized up and get used occasionally (I hope).

*Leave it Andy

Not saying a word Fontyyy... other than you won't get a chance to use it as you'll soon descend into 6 months of total darkness that far north anyway!! Laughing

You should move away from where you are. No human should have to live with weather that cold!

If its any help mate, Id drain the tank and carbs, put a litlle oil in the tank and slosh it about ( youll have to flush it next year) take the plugs out stick some 2 stroke oil down each barrel and turn the engine slowly with kick start to coat the iners, put the plugs back in, remove battery and cover the bike, also try and get bothe wheels off the ground and let some preassure out to save the rubber, next year youll need to clean out the oild from the tank, put battery back in, change the plugs and your should be away.... Thats what i would do, No doubt someone will have diffrent idea's oh yeah and change the G box oil and 2 stroke oil next year as well

Ops and try to stop moisture getting to her, a nice dry warm living room is always good

and the most important part? Make sure you got ANTI-FREEZE in the radiator. Drain that thing good. Turn it upside down to get all the water out, then fill it full with anti-freeze.

Personally I would fill the tank as much as you can. An empty tank can attract condensation and that means rust.
