Well, that clears things up a bit. The cover is coated and one of my co-workers removed the coating with a nasty solvent and polished it with semi-chrome. Looks fantastic but you have to buff it often. He did his fork bottoms too. If it doesn't leak, leave it on. Too much work. Non-operational ? Does that mean you can't license it ? Bummer. That's no way for a good bike to go down.

To: [email protected] Date: Tuesday, December 2, 2008, 12:03 PM Dennis, Thanks for the response. It was only to get the cover off to clean up and polish. This bike has been registered "non-operational" here in California since Dec. '99. The odometer shows 11,000+ miles and I have no idea if that is correct. If it is anyway close, the engine shouldn't need any service. It did run when I bought it. Guess I'll try to do the cover while still on the engine.
