Also in the pictures thread "suzy got nekkid"

Any possible solutions to get the center casings looking better?

Wow... thats a lot of rot! To be honest I don't know what to do now, may be a strip down and a respray. When its done though get some ACF50, best way to protect the bike from the elements!

It's looking loads better just through wire brushing it, dizzys feller has some phosphoric acid based stuff that's apparently really good for taking it back to metal, then lacquering it.

Currently got the bike upside down lol
