I've rubbed my finger over the dials and I took a cotton bud to the ignition, so that's nice and shiney!

It's the details that count.

Not yet, but I will be. When I had the tank up recently to balance the carbs it was bluddy filthy. The bike looks reasonable on the "outside" but I know it is minging under the surface.
