I've used this for the past 21 winters. My bike is old, but absolutely NO corrosion.

I give the bike a good cleaning, wax it good and cover the bike with a light blanket (the ones airlines used to give us) just to keep the dust off. Then I put a bucket of Damp Rid under the bike/cover for the winter. I also keep it on a battery tender. Never have any rust or corrosion, the original battery lasted 7+ years in the bike and now lives in a garden tractor.
I still have about 4 more months before I have to do all that though.
The bike sits in an unheated garage, on one of those rubber backed mats that you see at the doorway of stores.
