I noticed the other day a rust puddle forming on the plastics (side of tank) under the throttle twist grip when parked up, so i looked up and thought one of the screws must be going rusty........???
So with further investigation i removed the screws from the throttle twist grip they seemed to be normal so i then investigated to further and took apart the whole unit
then i found that the handlebars are not made of alloy and all the rust was coming from inside the throttle grip handlebar.
Anyway a little clean up was in order. But all this time i thought my bars were alloy...
Ps: i do like to clean my bike on a regular basis.......
