The vac bags are very good. Vacuum pack the bike with a large nah of silicone in then bottom to soak up any remaking moiature

whats the tank like inside? i take mine off every winter put a bit of 2 stroke oil in slosh it around and leave it inside over winter seems to do the trick,and the rest i spray with wd40 its kept in a wooden garage that gets alot of moisture in winter but doing this is keeping the corosion at bay.

I used to cover my fireblade in wax furniture polish when they were new for winter storage in a damp workshop, so long as it was clean and dry, it was shiny as when you cleaned up and it smelt like new as it warmed up
