Hi guys, my motorcycle was laying on the ground and fuel leaked from the gas tank. So now my varnish got damage, is it possible to fix it by myself? Or does it need to be repainted? Thanks
1. we normally use kick stands or what these hd boys refer to as the 'jiffy stand'....it's a kick stand
2. great first post
3. you're new to bikes, eh?
4. i'd have it stripped to metal, and repainted with a new 'varnish' coat on top
mostly unnecessary, but the advice to have it stripped to metal is good advice and well intended.....if the fuel did that to the clear coat, it likely effected the paint and primer as well
