Bay of Gigs, WA | Similar here in the NW. 7 inches of rain in 3 days, supposed to be sunny(ish) for the rest of the week now. Temps in the low 40's. What's not to like except it happens during the week?

| Always wondered, how does salt affect motorcycles differently than it does cars?

I'd say more & less. The aluminum parts on the bike are more susceptible to pitting while the plastic parts of the Vision won't rust if the get nicked like a car.

Bay of Gigs, WA | Semi synthetic oil, as used in our Visions (except by, you know, blasphemers), already has more salt than regular oil, so it doesn't taste as good if driven on salted roads. That's the main difference, as I see it.
