Always on the battery tender jr. when not used...just don't look at the condition of the bike under the battery...some rust dots appearing on the oil bag thatwas just discovered when I pulled the battery to put new heated gear harness...yuck!

That's why I took my battery box to my local Line-x dealer. $10 later and I don't think I'll have to worry about grinding through the powder anymore.

Better late than never. I haven't pulled the battery out since I did this, but with only 9,500 miles on the bike, it had already worn through the factory powder.

Loooong time ago, we used to use instant rubber for some tools and equipments.  I don't remember the name of the company, but I can find out.  They had that stuff in container for dipping like screw drivers and tool handles and also in spray for inside electric boxes and such.

I'm going to look it up.  It'll save a trip to Line-X or rhino dealer.

Don't mean to hijack the hijack but can anyone else confirm that the general meeting to unveil the new models will be Tuesday July 22 @ or around 9:00 am?
