RE: Rust on mudguards - hondadownunder_imp - 04-21-2022
Same issue with the mudguard bracket, although I'm going to fit my fork gaitors this weekend so I'll inspect underneath the guard.
I also have rust appearing on the oil cooler pipes. So I'll look at getting those done when I do a service later this year.

A light rubbing with a piece of Aluminium foil will have them like new in 60 seconds.

They are superficial but i want to get rid of them asap. I think I’ll clear them with sandapaper or some abrassive brush drill, then paint them with some protection product. Someone been there before? Any advice on how to proceed?
Yeah I noticed the same when I had the fender off to install a Extnda Fenda. I lightly sanded, cleaned, and coated the rust with Rust Converter, then painted the whole area with oil based enamel.
On mine it wasn't really the fender so much as the sheet metal brace attached to the fender. I posted about it here:

My fender looked similar to this, but worse. And this is on a bike that has seen light drizzle on it only twice in it's lifetime. Also, it is in San Diego, away from the coast, and stored in a garage.

Rust is gone now!
Took mudguards off, cleaned rust and applied protective paint (well, my mech did!). Ready for next 10 years!

Excellent Classico.
Any "after" image?
Is the protective paint a "hard" or "soft" type to handle the stones that circulate in the fender?

I’m ou ton holiday but will take some images of underneath mudguards. Unfortunately no pics were taken during painting. Protective paint is hard to the tact
