So what is your storage rituals? It went from 80 to 30 F in about a week and doesn't look like it is going to improve.

Might be time to pack it in for the year.

I store my GRiSO in my unheated garage on a tender over the winter, and change the engine oil in spring.

Should I be doing something more and or different?

Thanks from a newbie GRiSO owner.

When the roads are clear and dry, take it out and ride it! Pillage!

I ride all year long. I don't what this "storage ritual" is.

Change the Engine Oil (and optionally the gearbox and final drive oils) now, rather than in the Spring, if you won't be riding much.

Otherwise, any acids in the fluids (a byproduct of combustion) won't attach the internal parts all Winter long.

Or - move to Florida......  I'm just starting the Prime Riding Season.

I'm at the Osteen dinner having breakfast.
Me happy.

100f here now during the day, mid 80's at night
After a particularly brutal summer this year, it's finally calming down
