Suzuki steel is scrap metal and rusts like crazy overnight. Warm water rinse and sponge will help. Look for a garden spraybottle that you pump up to pressurise and spray up the steel fenders, front of the frame, crannies around the swing arm etc. if your outdoor waterline is frozen.

Just replaced the coal stoker boiler in the garage with an indoor condensing kerosene unit ( impressive but that's for another discussion)
The garage is now unheated.
Spots of white corrosion are already appearing on the side casings and fins.
I guess the old boiler wasn't as well insulated as they said

yes it's not very nice...when I see it, I wipe the powder off and rub some more oily-waxy crap around on the fins and casing which helps...It burns off or gets washed off every ride but summer is coming when it'll be forgotten until next year .
Forks and stanchions can be bad too, once the coating gets pummeled off. I've tried various ez things here but of them all,I like the black appliance epoxy as cheap and good on the aluminum there for a beater-bike.
