Sorry to hear that, and hope you get better soon. I would let it be driven 10 miles every two weeks. Long enough for the oil thermostat to open and fully circulate.

It will be fine parked. I park mine over the winter (salted road season). They sit with battery tenders and start with no problems in the spring.

Sorry about the leg. Hope the recovery is speedy.

I would just keep it parked - had mine parked with tender for 5 months and was perfectly fine. Hope you recover quickly.
