    no trickle charger it is riden as daily transport. it is a 2011 they were changed under warranty in oct 2012 . as a mechanic , I suspect it has something to do with a metal fork seal cover on a aluminium slider causing electrolysis and the paint falls off . I am wondering if the last repairers just resprayed them instead of replacing the sliders , I don't know

    great outcome.
    ask how often this is happening and what is the cause so you might avoid it in the future
