Rust

As said all the metal parts- the whole bike !! The biggies (i live on the coast of Fla as well)
are the galvparts - the axle nuts, adjusters, oh hell the wholething rusts here. Gotta keep on top of it. I use never dull on most - then polich/ wax etc.. The factory chrome sucks!!
The after mkt stuff isnt too bad. One of the worst places on the Bonne not noticed is the ft fender supports & the oil return tube & the inside of the rear shiocks The rims etc you can see easy! Just keep an eye on all. I find it easier to look for stuff like that inthe bright sunlight out of the garage. Mine looked great till i looked in the sun @ the inside of the left- downside shock. Rusted beyond repair ! New ones commin next year & wont be chrome!!
Nice bikes- lousy chrome etc!!
