Fuel/ Winter

Hi, when I put my bikes away for the winter I fill the tank and add stabil. BUT should I do this with the hyper tank ?? The street fighter has had problems with there tanks ( I think expanding ) and I believe ours are made with the same material.

I always use a fuel stabilizer in my bikes gas tank.....but it's just habit. The fuel injected bikes don't seem to have any problems that i'm aware of....and so far..i never heard of a late model Hyper gas tank expanding like my old Multistrada did. I believe Ducati and Acerbis have fixed the tank problems.
