Re: Wrong Choice. New '18 SV650.
Very little specifically to keep an eye on, worst corrosion that ever appeared on mine was on the oil filter.
I don't ride mine all year but it lives outside year round within a few hundred yards from the north sea.
Looks pretty good at 14 months old but I don't ride in rain much (the mudguards are absolutely non-existent) and clean it regularly with waterless wash and wax.
If you ride in rain regularly your gear is going to get absolutely clarted.
If I was going to ride my SV in winter it would be getting a visit from AllYearBiker.
A colleaugue who has a 15reg MT-07 has hers done by them and it looks better than new.
