Winter is right around the corner and unfortunately for most of us in the US this means we'll have to put away our toys for hibernation. But what is actually involved in preparing a motorcycle for winter storage? Some people are okay with parking their bikes for the winter just as they left it after their last ride and while that may work for some of the warmer climates, it's not recommended for those of us in the frozen north. There seems to be a lot of confusion as to what is actually involved in getting a bike ready for winter storage with varying opinions from every rider. In this thread you'll find a general idea of what is required to get your bike through the winter and out on the other side as good as you left it. We're going to highlight some of the best winter prep products here, all of which are available from Riders Discount. If there is something you don't see here but want for your winterization needs, contact our expert sales staff by giving MIKE a call at 866.931.6644 ext. 804. Prefer email? No problem, send us a message through this forum with the products you're looking for or write to us at FORUM at RIDERSDISCOUNT dot COM, and we'll get back to you right away! So what are some of the key winter storage products available to prep your bike for the cold season? Stands to prevent your tires from flat spotting, anti-freeze for coolant, fuel stabilizer to prevent your gas from breaking down, fogging oil to prevent cylinder corrosion, battery tender to keep your battery fresh, and a bike cover to keep your bike warm. Just kidding, a bike cover will help keep your bike clean and partially dust free throughout winter. One thing not pictured are muffler and intake plugs to keep pests out, although a couple paper towels stuffed in your exhaust and intake should suffice. Street riders likely already have anti-freeze coolant but it never hurts to give your bike a good flush and refill every year. If you have ran any kind of track time this year, there's a good chance you don't have anti-freeze properties in your coolant and getting it changed out is a necessity. There are numerous options available for anti-freeze and we sell them all. Pictured here is Maxima Coolanol. Engine Ice is also common and available from Riders Discount as well. Fuel stabilizer is recommended if you plan on storing your bike for longer periods of time. Now, regarding batteries, if you have a lithium ion battery, remove it, bring it inside, and store it in a closet. These shouldn't need a charge, however if you think it may, go ahead and give us a call and we'll get one on the way for you. If you have an OE style acid battery, plug in the Battery Tender and leave it. That's it. You don't need to remove it from the bike if you don't want to. One last thing, a common misconception we've seen is to start your bike periodically through the off-season and get it up to temp. You can look at it from time to time but you really don't need to start it up. Just let it sit and fire it up come spring time. So what do you guys and gals do to get ready for winter? (Be prepared for California riders to post up a witty remark about them continuing to ride...)

First impressions of the Knox Zero 2 glove when putting it on is how soft and supple it is inside. It feels like crawling into bed after a long day at the office. On the exterior you'll find a high-end, quality glove constructed from goat skin featuring OutDry waterproof and windproof membrane that is still breathable. More about OutDry - how can something be waterproof and windproof but still breathable? Basically the membrane used allows for body heat to escape through the glove yet doesn't allow any water to break through. Available to purchase on Riders Discount's website with retail at $189.95. If you have any questions or would like to call to place an order, give MIKE call at 866.931.6644 ext. 804. Is email more convenient?

Knuckle and finger sliders are incorporated into the glove and underneath a layer of digital goat leather. The knuckle sliders are floating and move with your hand for increased comfort. Goat leather and kangaroo palm with an Amara grip pad for improved control. Also note the scaphoid sliders similar to those seen on Knox's higher end gloves like the Handroid glove. The silicon print on the end of the fingers are for added grip on your levers. 3M reflective piping is used throughout the glove including around the end of the wrist cuff. Also notice the waterproof zipper and inside you'll see the Bemberg micro-fleece liner that feels absolutely amazing. This glove will keep you extremely warm on the coldest rides. What do you think of the Knox Zero 2 glove? Would you wear this glove?
