Best advice I can give you store inside a place that does not have large temp changes. A small tin storage buliding is not a good choice.
Drain gas and put stabilizer in what's left. Then spray everything under the hood and all the suspension down with WD. Put the cover on and put it in a shed if possible.
I clean the sled real good front to back,Grease all the zerks,Add stabilizer to the fuel.And i make sure to start the sled once a month(let it run till the motor is warm). And she's good to go next winter!
stabil
run once a month
keep mice out of it
that's all i do and never had a problem

Stablizer, non-ethanol gas (always), and fogger.
Thinking of using those fake plugs with the desicant this year, to keep moisture out of the cylinders. Anyone have experiance or are they a sham?
I'd suggest leaving the tank full. Drained mine last year and the o-rings at the fuel pump outlet dried up. Also, with a full tank less water condensation caused by changing temps.

Top the tank off.
Put stab. in, and run the sled for a few minutes to circ the stab through the carbs.
Fog the carbs and cylinders. Grease everything up, pull the belt off.
Worked well so far. Don't waste your money on the plugs...just fog, it will accomplish the same thing.(no moisture)
It will smoke a bit on start up, but then she'll be good to go in the fall.

Grease
clean all aluminum
Store with 110 octane fuel - does not break down like lower octane.
110 octane will not gum up the carbs with green slime either.
Do not use stabil - it will dry out your fuel line and acc.
Fog motor - no need to run during the summer.
I've had great results, no rust on bearings - even on a 10 year old motor

storage
run sea foam occasionally, especially towards end of year
dump in some race gas,
give her a good cleaning
grease all zerks
wd 40 and rag wipe down metal(underhood,suspension)
fog engine and leave alone till fall/winter
take belt off
I use a I stand for the back and block on front to hold sled so the suspension is not compressed
I also take my clutches apart and clean and leave springs out till fall so they arent compressed all summer
Put in shop cover up and walk away till next snow
