Fogging is accomplished by using Fogging Oil. Most hardware stores and motorcycle shops carry it.

Essentially it is spraying oil into the spark plug holes turn the engine over a few times and spray agiain and re-install plugs. It puts an oil coat on the surfaces to prevent rust, corrosion and things siezing up during storage.

Read the WINTERIZING post in the Eninge FAQ section and apply what sections are needed. It outlines alot about I/O drives but, basically the same applies to all engines.

Sea Foam, in the spray can called Deep Creep, is designed specifically for that purpose. And spray some in the carb air intake also.
