So? Fasteners still corrode over time, unless you're living in a
really dry region.

So? It's important to have fasteners stay fastened on *any* ride.

That you are an argumentative Evil Clown and you will soon claim that
I'm stupid for not turning the OP's request for advice into a long
drawn out debate and you will then shift over to your version of
"humour" and claim that I have no sense of it.

I'm not arguing at all. I honestly can't understand what you're
blabbering on about. You've obviously decided to try and debate some
point or other, wittered on about Robert Pirsig, said that California
doesn't salt roads, and generally posted a load of irrelevant
nonsense.
Once more: your point? Please?

Let's cut you some slack. What, exactly, was wrong with the advice given
by Mark, Badger and myself?
