The time has finally come...
« on: January 07, 2012, 03:38:39 PM »
..to clean the bike properly   :runyay  Seeing all these clean STs has got to me   :crazy

I have bugs and dirt on the bike from :think1  Queensland still, and perhaps the 2008 snowy ride.  It rained heavy a few days so the bike did get cleaner sorta 

I bought some Turtle tar and bug remover today in the aerosal pack (marked down) and just tried it.  Works a treat   :hatwave and really get the junk off.  Just got to finish the rest of the bike and polish the staintunes  :p

Only problem is the less than ideal paintwork is now there to see  :-[

Have to think about some remedial painting and touching up of various bits   :well

I will try and keep it clean for nambucca and the national meet... ::)
