For many years, I kept them clean but didn't go crazy with it. Woke up one morning and decided it's time to get some OCD going on the CVO( CUSE5, Burnt Amber) . Ordered some Glare products, suppose to arrive today, so I'll start my process later this week if I'm lucky. Wash, dry, put up on J & S jack, remove seat, bags, side covers and polish everything. It'll take a few days but I have another bike to ride (10 FXSTC), but turn on some talk radio, a beer, a cigar (gotta step outside for that) and take as much time as I can. Then start the other bike. I have a few (too many) vehicles; 04 F-250 Crew, 2000 Navigator, 2 Grand Cherokees. Then my In-Laws Q-45 and Accord to do. Surely my folks will want their 2 done then too.... gonna be a busy spring. Retirement, what retirement? Had my last surgery yesterday following some broken leg issues but this last one was a piece of cake!
