In todays episode the upgrades to the Mighty VanVan continue! I fit a Cymarc chain guard, sump guard and rear tail tidy. Plus an RV200 grab rail and top it all off with a new number plate.

    In my case it was the inside of the rear wheel and the bottom side of triple clamp. Also, I've got lots of small spots of chipped paint on the frame (strangely mostly in the "V section" on both sides) because I tend to use this bike more off-road than on the paved roads so debris is hitting the bike all the time. That said no rust on the frame. Definitely no rust in the places where your bike has it. Even more interestingly, like yourself I currently live in a damp climate so I was surprised how much rust you've got, or should I say how little rust I have on my bike :)
