I'd say drain the old gas out of the tank, Change the oil, and clean the filter. Just some suggestions.

If your gonna store it for that long you need to drain the tank, the carb bowl and the fuel lines really well to avoid gelling. After gasoline sits for awhile it will form into a gel in places you don't want it to, so you either take it out before storing it or put a fuel stabilizer in the tank to keep the fuel fresh.
Empty your carburetor float bowl when you drain your tank to get rid of the old stuff. You may even want to flush some new gas thru.
