Inside fairing and back side of side case protection

[Bill Lumberg]

The unpainted portion of my fairing isn't visible unless the fairing is removed. I don't use anything on it, nor do I use anything on the adjustable black inserts on each side of the bike. As for my side cases, they're already chalky and gray looking on the unpainted parts, even though the bike is garaged when not in motion. Armor all doesn't work that well, and migrates it's slickness downward in the rain. I'll have to try 303 protectant, though I've always suspected it was just another propylene glycol based quck detailer. Most detailers have the ingredients listed on the MSDS sheet. 303 lists theirs as proprietary, so I may never know.

One way to protect the fairing is don't drop your FJR in a parking lot or some Florida country road. Another way is to leave the bike in your garage.

 

[Bustanut joker]

No way.... No damned way!!!

I'm gonna play nice though. Special needs people deserve respect too.

To protect the inside of the fairings, coat them with a good rub of Doberman ****. That serves multiple purposes. It keeps the mice from getting into your air filter. They're scared of Dobermans. The smell will distinguish your bike from the rest, so you don't get it confused. Doberman **** also is a rust preventative. God knows we don't want the inside of these plastic fairing panels rusting.

Not sure why anyone would obsess over the reverse side of the fairings or side panels. If you need to take them off for whatever reason, just wash them. As for the matt black side vent panels I use McGuire's Gold Class Quick Wax. It does not leave a discoloured film. You can use it on the rest of the bike's painted surfaces as well.

Art,

You are not from Canada please correct the misspelling of Color please.

Thank u

I heard bat **** works pretty good AJ.. But I'm just a bully who only belittles **** like this.

How do I polish the insides of my tires? Can I do it without taking them off the rims? What do you guys use?

Welllll..

I heard from Don Stanley that he uses secretions from an aroused *****.. You be the judge of the validity of that pal.

An' it's Lithium now P

 

[Bustanut joker]

Nothing that I've heard of. I'm not anal enough to worry about it

. Ask George cause He keeps all his stuff spotless.

...watch it buster!

Soap and water, followed up with Honda spray polish works for me.

And this is why George was asked to leave Michigan..

Is Rottweiler **** an acceptable substitute? I hope so, 'cause that's what I've been using on mine, ever since that mouse got centrifuged to death in my front wheel spoke last year...

 

[Bustanut joker]

Should be ok Blues.. Just make sure they are eating raw meat, preferably teen aged hoodlums

 

[HotRodZilla]

Right, what Bust said.

So much for the kinder and gentler forum

...and just think, I turned the lights out!

[Bustanut joker]

And there is an arrest warrant out on you for that George...

Seems you shut the lights out after dark and Ex Governor Grandhole ran into a tree an lost her mind.

Hey...Woah. This isn't a "Tech Thread" is it? I wouldn't want to be part of dragging such valuable information off the rails.

On that note, smearing the dog **** inside the fairings serves another purpose. If someone happens to drop a screw down into the bowels of the bike, it will most likely stick to the dog ****. That'll make it super easy to find.

Too bad we didn't know this info a couple days ago.

 

[Bustanut joker]

Careful buddy.. This is in the tech area.

Technically, the bowels of the bike would be the appropriate place for all your ****.
