Hi,
Just been out for my 2nd ride of 2001. On my previous ride I was out for 2
hours and spent 2.5 hrs cleaning the bike, thus a 4 week gap to let our
British roads dry out a bit.
So I leave my bike all clean and dry in my garage covered with a thin cotton
sheet sitting next to my old Suzuki. I come back to the bike this afternoon
to find that the finish on the engine and front wheel has turned to poo!!!!
Even the chain that was smothered in oil had little rust spots on it!!!!!
:^(
I'm going to be taking off most of the plastic for the GTS when my new body
panels arrive ( so later in June listening to your experiences). What do you
recommend to a) clean this crap off my bike, b) treat the metal with so that
it does not happen again, c) is there an all in one chemical?
Am I doing anything wrong with my storage methods?
Has anyone ever fitted sacrificial nodes to a bike? Does the list think that
this might be a good idea?
Every bike in the UK was out today so the police were having fun. The GTS
still gets a lot of puzzled looks when I stop for fuel etc.
