    Rust on brand new 2022 CBR650R engine case

    I just took delivery of a 2022 CBR650R. I bought it in October and it was sitting in its crate at the dealership in Connecticut over the winter until late March (so very little heat or humidity). I just went to clean/lube the chain and wash the bike for the first time and I noticed there was...

    All 650's Rusty chain

    Before corona, I rode daily and cleaned/lubbed weekly. Last week, after more than a month sitting dirty at the garage, I cleaned the chain and everything was fine, but I postponed applying lube, because I wasn't going to ride for a while. Now, one week latter, the chain has a lot of rusty spots...
