Personally, I'd go with a brand that has a servicing dealer near by.

That's a very good point, what's easy now probably won't be in 10 years.

You seem to have your mind set on the QA forks, which are nice, no question there. For your stated use however, a set of clamp on forks would serve you just fine, and come in at less than $200. Money saved could be used for another implement down the road.

It won't hurt a thing to keep it outside, mine is under cover, because it's available to me. If I didn't have that available to me, I would just put it up on blocks, and throw a water proof tarp over it.

Yeah, I would clean it and put it back in, then you are good to go for 1000 hrs, at least on the PST transmission, can't speak for the other models of the 4035.

Sure, it's both through life experience, (30 years in rubberized products) and through this site. What I found was that silicone flat stock tuned gooey when exposed to gasoline and diesel, as a general rule. Here's the site I use, it's 4 pages but is alphabetical so that helps. Rubber...
