SUZUKI says to fill the engine with new oil all the way up to the fill hole (so way more than is meant to be inside of a running bike) and then drain it after winter, filling it up like normal with new oil. So that's basically wasting 4 liters or whatever of oil each year. I wonder if you can substitute that oil for some cheaper filler oil, like base oil or whatever as it seems it's mostly there for rust preventative measures as the bike isn't actually run at all.
That's a complete waste of time money and oil, just do a normal Oil change and let it sit this way same as new bike is being shipped from factory on any car or motorcycle
Great tips for winter storage!!
Good tips!

one has nothing to do with the other.
