SORN'd for the forseeable

[banther]

So the Cup is off the road for the forseeable future because I f**king hate it.

Its in a locked garage.

My question is thus; what do I need to do in order for it to still be useable when I next come to use it?

I've left it in gear not on the hand take, deflated the tyres a little and kicked off a wing mirror for no good reason.

Anything else?

Ideally put it on axle stands. Keep the weight off the tyres, deflating them won't help either.

 

[banther]

Sorry didn't mean to put deflated. Inflated to 35psi. Is that enough?

 

[Dan@SJM]

Keep an eye on the pressures, ideally rotate them 1/2 a turn once every month. Stops flat spots on the tyres. Or the axle stands saves that.

Whats up with it??

 

[banther]

Ok axle stands it is. I presume I start it periodically as well?

 

[Dan@SJM]

yeh, but don't just start it and run it for a few minutes as that will do more damage than good. Make sure its run up for a good 30-45 minutes, get it up to temperature properly.

 

[banther]

Okie doke.

Id get a trickle charger for battery or take it off completely.. I spend fortunes on batteries
