Polishing

[BigAlan]

Just spent almost all morning cleaning and polishing the bike, looks like brand new, I have had the postman, a woman walking a dog and a neighbour I had not seen for ages all stop and comment on the bike and how they liked it.

Even people at work when I sometimes ride it comment on how they like the look of it.

A popular choice I think, me I loved it within five miles of riding it.

Not about polishing, but as you mentioned work.

One of the managers here took a shine to my bike and asked if could ride it around the car park (after assuring me he'd cover any damages!)

So off he went round and round for 5 mins. Comes back and says "wow, I've never driven an automatic".  ;D

BA ... I know what you mean ... nothing like a good clean and polish, a bit of Auto Glym and ACF50 ( any excuse to put on a pair of latex gloves ) .... very relaxing  ;D ;D

This has reminded me I meant to wash my bike today, but got caught up doing work. *sigh*

I think it's gonna rain tomorrow... :( Hopefully I can get it done before the heavens open.

Yep ... just remember chaps ... the 21st has been and gone so the days are actually getting longer .... which means more light, more warmth, more time to spend enjoying the GTR !!! Now that has to be worth a smile  :) :)

My bike hasnt been cleaned since october. . . .One of you ocd chaps fancy giving me £50 to come and clean mine? You can talk to my neighbours for me as well cos they are all bloody lunatics.  . . . .

[Lonewolf]

I'd gladly clean your bike for £50  ;D  but me pay you £50 and clean it, now that's taking liberties!! ;)

[Rusty]

if you don't like cleaning your bike you need help ! ;)

[Boomer]

Then I need help.  :o ::) ;)
I do it, but I don't like it.

As for polishing, I have a spray-on/buff-off wax that is good enough for me.
It's a bike, not jewellery.

No if you like cleaning your bike then you need help.
I prefer riding it! ;D ;D

Have to agree riding it is top of the list, but then when you get home and you carefully take each panel off and wash front and back & then blow dry each panel followed by a good polish of each panel etc....you get the picture. It is very comforting.  ;)
