Well my brother lived in Swiss Alps for many years. He always said he never saw rain for six months of the year, just snow and that was always dry. He never learned to drive and never owned a mechanically propelled vehicle but has a fair collection of manically propelled vehicles bicycles, skis, etc and hats rain in winter like we get, even if we can go out all year.
Since you are in hibernation there are a few more things you should look at. The 114,000 km is nothing for a K. Do pop up a photo because there are some significant changes over the times the models were produced.
Replace the fuel lines between the tank and injector rail and fuel pressure regulator [FPR]. There are 3 of them and you need the bottom half of the airbox off from the right hand side to access the FPR. A few on/off tank sessions will crack old lines and the fuel is under pressure.
Lots of posts on the forum about electrical connections so its always recommended to open up and clean them, just do them one by one and you wont have head scratching issues.
There are some fantastic posts and threads here so keep us all posted and someone will direct you to them or send you links.
