Rust
#1
I discovered rust on both of the chrome plated shock bodies on my 2014 DLX - has anybody else experienced this? This surprises me because I have never experienced rust like this on any of my other vehicles here. My bike is 100% garage stored, and has only gotten slightly wet once in a slight drizzle last year. I was able to remove almost all of the rust using a stiff rag and some elbow grease, but some pitting remains in the upper area where the shock seals are installed. I would like to hear if anybody else has experienced this.

I had the same thing on mine. They were replaced under warranty.
