Default Keeing Water/Condensation out of gas tank.

What is the way of keeping water/condensation out of your gas tank? I notice that when I open my tank after a night of it sitting there sometimes is a drop of (water) that falls on the outside of the tank from the gasket of the cap.

Does anybody else have this, its it common and is there anyway to prevent/deal with it. I had to replace my old tank becuase of rust within it and it clogged my carbs and fuel filter (needless to say).

Buy some dry gas but dont put it all in at the same time. And i believe another way is to keep your tank full at all times but that is alittle harder on a bike.

Interesting, I never heard of dry gas? How does that work and where would i buy it from. But im assuming that water (one form or another) is always going to find its way inside?
