Drive Shaft Rust
I noticed today that there are significant amount of rush on my Rebel drive shaft. Is this normal? Do you guys seeing the same thing as well?

Surface rust on the drive shaft is normal. Has anyone tried cleaning the rust and rust proofing it?
normal. My buddy removed the rust with a rust remover than rubber coated it but I don't think it's worth the trouble of removing the rust.
It's definitely inevitable, don't really find a point spending too much attention on it at all
I would be concerned about uneven application and wobbling, but I suppose the same could be said about rustnormal. My buddy removed the rust with a rust remover than rubber coated it but I don't think it's worth the trouble of removing the rust.
I know they don't paint those in case they throw off the balance, guess rubber coating could do the same. Probably best left alone then.
I've read somewhere that painting it won't throw the balance off, worst case scenario you could send it off to get re-balanced but apparently it's nothing to worry about
As long as the rust doesn't go deeper, it should be fine as is.
