I used to start by stripping the bike of as much plactic and covering as possible for better access. You also learn more by knowing where certain parts are and what they look like clean and undamaged. Lots of fun actually and a sense of accomplishment when all is said and done.
O.K. that's a great idea for me.
I'll go bookstroe and read it while on the shop... ha ha ha
If subscription is not that expensive, let me do subscribe it.
Thanks for the nice infor.

I went and bought 2 galvanized covers, one in my pack to use and one under the seat as a back up. Along with a couple other things too I picked up on here. :2tup:
Thanks for the galvanized cover info.

The galvanized cover is put under the side stand when parking on soft ground.
