Storing for the winter

fjerding
So as you all know I have a 1980 Honda CB750K that runs and I ride. My questions for all is, How do you store it for winter? I have heard a few different methods and so I am a bit confused as to which way to go about it. Any ideas?Here she is.

Put it on the center stand, and place a piece of wood (plywood works good) under the front tire so that it does not touch concrete. Fill up the gas tank, and add Seafoam to the gas. Run the engine until the treated gas gets to the carbs. Trickle charge the battery overnight every two-three weeks, and start the engine. Should be good to go in the spring.
