if so do they work? pros? cons?

Just picked up a can for something else but will try some on the bike as well. Gets good reviews on overseas bike sites though. Anyone ever tried those electrostatic systems on their bike?

These can work in theory... but something nags in the back of my mind that there were privisors on their effectiveness... try seeing if someone like Dans Data has looked into them.

Not on bikes...like,why??? But have used a couple on cars - no,they don't work,and if the vehicle isn't used for a week or more it will flatten the battery.

I just use a can of CRC LongLife. Spray on, wipe around. Gets into all the nooks and crannies. Attracts dirt a bit but nothing a wipe or another spray won't fix.

Ewe lube is choice stuff too.....

I have used ACF-50 on aircraft. Ideal for them - lap joints and rivets (it travels well into the joints), and the material "fogs" and gets into inaccessable parts of the airframe. The only place I would think of using it on a bike would be inside a frame or swinging arm. It could be worth it when doing a complete rebuild - but I would probably be using something designed to neutralise rust and provide more permanent protection if it was an issue. ACF-50 should be redone every couple of years or so - which is not ideal for inside a bike frame.

INSIDE a bike frame o_O?

I take it the protection won't last long on exposed areas? so most of the areas which attract small stone chips or pockets of water won't be too well protected?

Why not use good ol fishoil?

Cause it stinks,clogs up every sprayer you have......and every cat in the area now lives at your place,cause it smells nice....

I think that is realistic. I would use the CRC long life, marine etc for exposed areas - easy enough to respray when you clean the bike.
