Same here...no sign of corrosion in three years with a
tractor battery.

I guess I've been pretty lucky. My four running Guzzis
all have the
tractor battery and I haven't seen any corrosion around
the battery pan
or sidecovers. I usually run a minimal solo seat so maybe
there is
reasonable air flow through there to prevent any damage.
The Eldo has
over 3 years with one.
Granted if the regulator ever stuck to full charge there
could be a real
mess.
