Cool Prepare for winter storage...

I decided to cold store my 1200c for the winter months. I was told just to drain gas out & pull battery. Is there more I should do?

There is a lot more involved than that. First, don't drain the gas, fill the tank with gas treated with Sta-Bil or equivalent.

See this thread for more complete info:

Ride as long as you can. Boats are for storage.
