Rust in disc
Hi fellow riders, my machine is new, it's only on 500km . Today i noticed some rust on front disc and some are starting to develop on rear as well, what might be the reason. I cover my machine while parking.

Re: Rust in disc
Many rotors are made of ferrous material that will have flash rust on areas that are not swept by the brake pads.

Re: Rust in disc
Not got anything like that on my 7 year old PCX rotor, and that's with London's dirty salty roads and all year riding. There may be odd little bits, but not to that extent.

Re: Rust in disc
It happens…..scrub it clean with a wire brush, emery cloth or the like and paint on something like this with a small paint brush:
