Gents, appreciate some feedback, looks as if courtesy of our Great Uncle, I will be spending some quality time in a land far away starting in July. Being that I wouldn't be able to get my motor installed and running until May, rather than start the car break in the motor and let it sit for a year, I am going to leave the engine out of the car, finish the body, and store the motor.
I'm thinking of prepping the moto with a squirt of light oil in each cyl, spray on the intake/exhaust valves, and case/flywheel with a light coat of WD40, tape some desiccant bags over the spark plug holes (moisture out of cyls, fill a stocking with a pound of rice and wrap the thing in cellophane for a year.
Any thoughts on the wisdom or lack of it in my plan? Putting the project on hold is a bummer, but all is good.
