    Any useful tips to stop the road salt eating my bike? I try and wash it every other ride but hasn't been working out to well as I've been worried about coming out to a block of ice in the mornings with how temperatures have been here

    As above.

    FS365 or ACF50 applied after a really good clean, making sure it's in every nook and cranny, and a cold rinse post ride. Not a proper soapy wash mind, as that will take some of the protection away.

    Yes, as above.
    Scottoiler were doing a deal 4ltrs for the price of 3 plus free neckwarmer which is what I got.
    Slightly better deals per litre. On eBay I am told.
    I have been using my Bonnie a lot through the winter and it definitely protects it.
