I sometimes wish I had a bike (and a garage to keep it in) that I didn't use much.

Then again, I'm happy with my SV, yes it's only a few months old and already showing signs of wear/tear and corrosion (even with ACF-50), but I still love it to bits and will clean it again when it's warm enough.

Ahh, ain't it lovely - pictures of dead motorbikes.

It's like tools - if you tidy them up, they die.

I spend too long riding mine to have time to devote to polishing afterwards.
