Even though I bring the battery into the house and put it on a trickle charger, it still can be ornery to start. It's carbureted and last year my neighbor pushed me so I could pop the clutch to get it started. I run synthetic oil and just before winter storage I top it off with non-oxygenated gas. But still, it can be difficult to start the first time, after sitting for six months. I can barely wait. I'm so excited to start riding again. I'm pushing 67 and the thrill of that first ride after a long winter is hard to beat!

I ride at least once a month so I keep it on a trickle charger when it is really cold. Even with snow there is always a day when the roads are dry. With two pair of long johns and heated gloves over a hot engine, it is a pleasure riding even in temperatures in the teens.

I don't bother to store my Rebel. I just ride it year round.

Great information and I must review the upkeep and storage for my motorcycle. Thank you for the power of knowledge for all women riders.
