Winterizing the bike...

So it's getting to be about that time. Unfortunately, I don't have a garage or storage space of my own. I have a few friends who have offered their garages for my bike, but they are all unheated. Since this is my first winter with my 750, I'm wondering what I all need to do to winterize my bike (especially when it will be up here in the bitter cold of Wisconsin!).

I've read a couple things: some telling me to drain the gas from my tank, some telling me to fill the gas tank to the brim, some telling me to change the oil before I put it away. I'll obviously take out my battery and put it on a trickle charger (or whatever it's called). Any other words of advise? What do you fellow riders in the northern states and Canada do?
