Corrosion inside rear wheel well - from rocker 2011 Pathy

Postby sportbikerider » Sun Mar 18, 2018 6:26 am

The inside of the wheel well was looking like it had some corrosion on it. I pushed on it and the metal just broke through into the rocker. The area was filled with sand and rust. It looks like maybe a drain hole became plugged and then it gathered debris.
I flushed it out with water and still will not drain. I think my only next solution is to drill a hole in the bottom of the rocker.

Other holes are clear, as the water from the flushing backed into the rocker and drained, as you can see from the pics.

Thoughts?

Thanks!
