My bike has been sitting outside for the last month without me starting it because the wheather is getting colder. I went to start it today so I could drive it to a garage for winter storage and it wouldn't start. Just kept turnin. I think it's just from sitting so long. But I might have killed the battery trying to start it...oops... What should I do next, and any suggestions for proper winter storage and getting it started again???

Was just wondering what type of bike it is.
The best way to store a bike is usually specified in the owners manual.
I inspect all cables, clutches, and the chain and tires, fog my engine, stabilize the fuel, drain the carburetor, change the air filter, change the oil and filter, take out and maintain the battery, wash and wax the bike, spray anti-corrosion spray on parts that may rust except brake parts, put the bike on the center stand, cover it, and leave it for the winter.
Please let me know what bike you have and I can help you out. Also, if you check out powersports360.com, you can order a manual right off of their web site.
Hope this helped.
