You'd be better off to top off with stabilized gas, unless you like rusted gas tanks...

If you leave air in the tank it will breathe as the air expands and contracts, in that air will be a bit of moisture, the moisture will eat your tank from the inside out!

If I was storing long term I would:

1: Run Stabil through the machine.

2: Syphon fuel out, start bike and run out fuel, remove tank.

3: Coat inside of tank with oil

4: Pour some oil into the cylinders via the plug holes

5: Turn over engine with plug leads off, coating cylinder walls

6: Plug exhaust with rag.
To this list, I would add plug the air cleaner intake...
