Only time it gets out ;D
Can't be @r$ed with cleaning it after using it in the wet.  Once I'd got my sports bikes clean it was just a case of going over with water and a sponge, but the H-D is a pain in the butt to clean after a wet run.

The chrome bits are easy, just wash and wipe, but there's very little chrome.  The motor, yokes and forks legs are polished alloy.
It's "Autosol til the fingers ache" when they need attention.  :D

Yup its all covered, did not spot it on the viewing. The garage were very good they offered me a FULL refund and would take it back  :o

But i got a good price on it, and apart from a hole in the zorst its in excellent condition.

Its been welded up, so hopefully that will last me at least a year, i will prob put a stainless system on it next year.

Got to go pick it up in a bit  :D

Well if anyone is riding out this weekend & using the A339 between Basingstoke & Alton PLEASE take it easy. Son-in-law is on duty this weekend & would prefer it if there were no casualties to clear up!!
