Can my bike sit idle for a week?

Your bike can probably sit and idle for a week if you keep it fueled. It can certainly sit idle for much longer than a week. You'll want to check the battery charge and tire pressures if you leave it for a month or more.

well, if you're that worried (which you are allowed to be, it's your ride), buy a battery tender, not a trickle charger, and keep her hooked up when yer gone.

As noted, just a good maintence idea to hae a battery tender on your bike. Youll have no problem with the week time frame. Now......to idle for a week???? :-0

Yes...recommend a battery tender and top off the tank with fuel...not necessary for short idle time, but good to put the tender on anyway...I always do after I ride.
