Primary Case Cover Ruined?
« on: September 21, 2025, 10:51:15 PM »
I got caught in a rain storm on my ride home. This was right after an oil change. I noticed the gunk looked brownish as if I had spilled coffee all over it. Now my primary cover looks like this after a wash. Horrible. I've tried S100, Simple Green degreaser, Engine Brightner, WD40, Meguiars rubbing compound, and nothing seems to cut it. Any ideas? Thanks!

From the pictures, it looks like you just need some chrome polish. There are lots of different brands.

I used a random orbital buffer with a paint correcting compound to get a couple of marks out of mine, it worked great
