Default BLACK ON MOTOR

I got a new 2008 NIGHT TRAIN, love the bike!!! I got caught in a major downpour here in florida yesterday and after cleaning up the bike today the black on the motor looks a little dull, it is clean, just not as bright as it was before. Any thoughts on what I can use to give it that deep black look again??

I use some stuff called Blackout. It looks like a thin version of Vaseline.It's awesome.You spread it on with a foam brush and it stays on and looks wet. I can't remember who makes it though.A bottle lasts me 4 years.I do more ridin than cleanin' though.

That's true, but my little buddy has been sick for weeks now. I sure wish he'd get better SOON!
