Also, I bought a new electric start generator for the house since my wife has a hard time pull starting the larger generator. So I have spare capacity.

We have not needed either one of the Honda's and they are still NIB, unopened.

My question: They have not been gassed or oil put in. Any idea how long they can be stored NIB?

I am assuming years. I have done a bit of poking around on the interwebs and can find nothing.

I'll call Honda after you guys stop making fun of me
I'd open the boxes and stuff abuncha those little desiccant packets in there (don't eat any) then wrap the entire box in a plastic garbage bag (don't put the gag over your head) seal them up with tape, put the whole shebang in the attic or dry basement or wherever. Then, a few years later when you stumble upon the bags and say, 'What's in these?' you can reopen them.
