I stripped the paint off mine after my off last year and gave them a good go with the Autosol. They look a load better but not as shiny as yours. Mind you, they wouldn't stay looking that good at this time of year with being ridden come rain or shine.

I found a big stick yesterday and wondered what good use it could be put to

Know that feeling, mines in lots of bits and I promised speedy claire that I'd be at the egg run at the end of march and I have tyres now booked for fitting next week - mmmm, no brakes - at all, no fairings or tank fitted, engine hasn't run since a full service (I have a reoccurring nightmare I have dropped a screw into the bit where the piston goes up and down), etc etc, some many bits to put on and test and then go for a 80 mile round trip to get the tyres on tyres I don't trust for 8 metres. I'm going to die!

Very nice indeed - I don't mind a little cleaning but all that polishing looks like hard work - rather you than me
