youll want to leave a full tank in the z while in storage. dry sensors, moisture build up all lead to fuel level indicator issues... plus that last of fuel you cant get out will spoil over time.

Empty tank is only helpful if you run the whole fuel system dry. Feasible (but pointless) in a motorcycle, not feasible in a car.

Don't do this.
