Probably in Sweden too although I'm from Norway, so I know they do it here.

So if you get one be careful to spray the underside of the bike as often as you can and get rid of that salt especially in the spring.
Ok, I think I'll try to prep it thoroughly with ACF 50 and see how it holds up during a winter or two. They say e.g. Yamahas don't take winter salted roads very well - it's something with the alloy they use which doesn't withstand salt as good as some other brands. But I can't verify that by own experience.

Thanks :-)
