Spraying crap all over your bike will force you into a complete bath before you can ride it. What happens if you catch a break in the winter with a sunny day? Sit there and listen to all the others ride by? Complete bath for one ride then respray?

I'd look for a better storage option where I can keep the condensation off the bike.

My brother did the WD-40 thing once. The dust caked up in every nook and cranny on the bike. Was a mess to clean up.
It is a good idea to clean the bike before storage, pledge works good and will repel some dust. Nothing wrong with spending a few hours or days cleaning the bike while it is in storage either.

Nope not worth it! After a lot of trial and error,the best thing is: service them,clean them, polish them, battery tend them,cover them,forget them,if you can.Unless you just like fussing with them,that's Okay too.After all it is your pride and joy!!
