well this is how it goes, i put on old clothes, goggles, smothered everything in autosol and then whipped out the dremmel and began, took about an hour but you need to keep changing the wheel otherwise you will scratch the can

You realise putting a car in a garage is a cardinal sin?
Garages are for putting bikes and tools and anything else the missus doesnt want in the house?

Nice curvy!
I'm over in Warsash with a very similar bike to you but with 11k on it - looks about the same condition. Spent alot of time at start of year but got a bit of a hammering in Germany earlier this year so need to do a prper pre winter clean.
Great bikes!

VERY CLEAN! Nice.
What polish have you used on the Paintwork? The rest looks autosol'd to shiney death!
ALSO, those wheels, are they black? Are those standard on the blue bikes or that 'age'?
