  1. what would be the solution? i ran the bike dry initially, but the issue is that the tank can rust, that's why I filled it back up. we can only get e5 or e10 garbage fuel here unfortunately
  2. yeah i plan on draining it all out when time comes to use the bike, about injectors, I was told it's not an issues - unlike carbs they don't store much if any fuel inside the injector itself, is this information wrong?
  3. have a bmw k100 rs that hasn't run since 2019, i filled the tank up with gas and stabilizer to prevent rust in the tank. other than that i didn't do much. i read that you should put fresh oil when storing for a long time because oil turns acidic and can damage the engine. I'm very skeptical of this claim and i think there is no evidence supporting it, am i wrong? lets start with the shaft drive oil, my Toyota went from 2008, 200k, until a few months ago without a differential and transfer case oil change. no issues that's 16 years of running the car almost daily. now, about the engine oil, how exactly would it hurt even if it turned acidic? what components could it damage just sitting there not running? does anyone have evidence supporting these claims or is this just bro science? to be honest i really can't be bothered to change the oil and spend some money on new oil that will have to be drained away anyways when the bike will come out of storage. guessing there are no issues with the coolant turning corrosive and such? anything else to do for this long term storage?
