Rust.

Anybody had any issues with the frane rusting on their Tenere??
On my eay down too the Touratech travel event. I noticed oil on the downtube between the headers. Got there and whipped the tank off and found serious corrosion all around the oil tank and its actually leaking through part of the corrosion.
Cleaned it with fuel and liquid metaled it to get me home and in now just in the process of stripping her down too assess the damage. It appears the corrosion is all around the oil tank the rest of the frame is in good shape.

Could it be the heat accelerating the corrosion i use tenere all year round but always wash and acf50.

I just hope i can repair it
