Hey guys! So my throttle felt a bit stiff upon return and almost gritty when twisted, so i had a little look took the bar ends off took the throttle housing off and wow a orange pitted rusty handle bar!! I realise i ride all year round and i keep it outside but covered so corrosion and rust is inevitable... So has anyone experienced this?
What i did was took 1000grit sandpaper and cleaned the whole area up cleaned it all up with wd40 greased it up and put it all back together smooth as silk now
I know it will rust again at one point i will check it when i next lube the throttle cables
May put a latex glove over the throttle when i put the bike away at night!
Stupud british weather been the wettest winter 200 odd years.... Screw you golf stream go home!
Peace!!!:rockon:
