I'm not sure if I should put this in the deuce or drivetrain section. I removed my center section to change out a side gear and found past evidence of water sitting in the housing for what must have been an extended period of time and some pitting on the bullgear. It runs smoothly and there...

Is there any huge issue with a battery being...

I am thinking of buying my first MV, a Deuce.
I've been talking to 100dollarman about getting one of his 2's or maybe a 3.
