As a blogger I try as best I can to avoid writing a steady stream of posts that are merely signposts to other people's articles and contain nothing original of any value. Unfortunately, I've been busy in the last couple weeks with work and it seems as though I've fallen into a bit of a bad habit. Still, I hope that you're getting something out of these posts and if there is a topic that you'd especially like to see covered I welcome you to post a comment with your suggestions.

Now that we're well into fall, many who own motorcycles and live the more northern latitudes are getting to that point in the year where they are thinking about winterizing, if they haven't done it already. And so, the following is a shortlist of resources to help you, the beginner biker, get your ride ready for winter storage.

Winterizing Your Motorcycle -- CAA South Central Ontario
A solid overview of how to winterize your motorcycle from the Canadian Automobile Association.

Winterizing Your Motorcycle Checklist -- MotorcycleCourse.com
A PDF how-to checklist for winterizing your ride from the rider school where I did my learner course. A good reference sheet but for the beginner rider needs to be supplemented with more detailed info.

Motorcycle Winterizing Tips from Gary D. Moore
Gary Moore on his website has written a decent overview of how to winterize, downloadable in both Word and PDF formats.

Motorcycle Winter Storage from TotalMotorcycle.com
A good guide from TotalMotorcycle.com on winterizing.

And of course, don't rely strictly on internet resources if you are unsure about anything, especially if you are winterizing your baby for the first time. Seek out help from reliable sources - friends with riding experience (who you trust!), local shops and dealers, and motorcycle riding clubs. When the weather starts warming up again in the spring the last thing you want to find out is how you're going to need to shell out for repairs and replacement parts because you didn't know what you were doing in October.
