rust prevention question
let me start off buy saying i do not have a hose spout at my place(plan on putting 1 in this summer)...so when i ride sometimes i have to put her up wet
im wondering, is there anything you guys do, like a mixture or stuff in a spray bottle or something, that would be good to spray down the brake discs and frame and anywhere else for that matter to slow down or prevent rust??
ive been riding in a lot of snow lately and i know some of that snow on the side of the road is salty :S...i hate opening the shed and seeing her sitting there starting to rust...

You can spray some WD-40 on some frame areas if you are real **** about it.
These machines are built with water/mud/sand in mind so as long as it doesn't sit outside all the time you shouldn't have much reason to worry. Also do not put WD-40 on the brakes!!! It will penetrate the pads and cause braking problems.
