So my bike is sitting through the deep freeze. Fresh oil, stabilizer, full tank.... My question is, should I let it run a couple of times before spring? I know it will probably make my muffler rust. But I'm wondering if it may be good for the valves, rings, springs, etc. to move a bit instead of sitting in one postion for several months straight. Opinions?

Unless you are going to run the bike all the way up to operating temp (and top off the fuel afterwards) -- such as to ride on a warmish day, don't start the bike at all. What you may want to do is rotate the wheels so the tires don't flatten out by sitting in the same spot -- but you can do that by hand and don't need to start the engine to do it.
