    Default Aluminium Corrosion

    Are all Spyders like this or have I got the Friday afternoon one, on my 2014 RT, most of the aluminium parts are corroded to such an extent, I can peel the bubbling paint off with my fingers revealing a white dusty deposit under the paint, on the rear wheel hub, all the foot rests, footrest plates, rear belt gear, rear wheel adjusters, exhaust tip, virtually every aluminium part that is coloured silver.
    This less than 5 year old garaged bike looks like it's 20 years old and been left out in the open all its life.
    What happened to Anodised Aluminium, anodising must be cheap as all the alu I buy at the local DIY shop for peanuts is anodised and i've never known it to come off or corrode.
    Anyone else had this problem?
    This is my first Spyder and will definately be my last.
