Great ways to set it up for storage and a full tank is a must
I might add along with raising the tire pressure 10 psi if setting on the side stand.
If mice are an issue where you planning to store your steel steed then plug the exhaust pipe's outlet holes with some oily rags then set a few blocks of poison, one at each tire an one by the center/side stand. I use TomCat baits and have had no more problems with nest in my air boxes or exhaust or wiring looms being eaten since doing this with stored bikes in my infested warehouse.
