Winterizing procedure for 2006 Sportster ?

[windrockwater]

Hi All,
Newbie Sportster owner here.

I would like gather the knowledge and the parts/materials/tools to winterize the sportster. Are there any videos or resources with the steps necessary? I don't mind giving this a go, but i am new to it so could use the guidance. I assume i need to flush out water, possibly fog the cylinders, but really am not sure. Any advice or suggestions?

Thanks alot.
Sean

Geez, thats alot of work. I do like the bottle of beer in the background.

I will.

1..Fill with fresh fuel and stabilizer
2..Oil and filter
3..Replace the plugs.
4..remove the Intercooler and store inside.
5.. Blow the water out of the remaining raw eater lines.
6. Bump it to 5K rpm for 5 seconds to blow as much water out of the exhaust can.
7.. Fog it in drowned mode.

Give it a wash. Put the cover on it and tarp it.
