-wash vac clean out the cookies and spits under the seat etc
-Install fresh filter and clean oil
-Run engine to circulate oil
-Check tire pressures
-put top up completely
- disconnect battery and charge  (removing the neg clamp is enough)
- throw trickle charger on for 1 day each month
-while you're out there, push the clutch and brake pedals a few times 
to exercise the systems.
- before starting, pull plugs, squirt in a couple of shots of 10W30, 
reconnect battery and crank until you see oil pressure. This should 
also fill the float bowls. re-install plugs and start. check brake pedal
