How do you keep your silver motors looking like new?
I'm just wondering how all of these silver motor bikes continue to look like new. I have see plenty of these bikes that the silver has changed to a dirty silver that just does not come clean. I'm trying to avoid this. I clean my bike regularly and use S100.
Are there any tricks that I'm missing?
Thanks.

I have looked everywhere and tried everything. The best cleaner for aluminum heads, primary, tranny and cam cover is Blue Magic by far. It will clean anything off like water spots, heat discoloration anything.

I LOVE the black jugs on that engine. I have wanted to do that for years and when I 95 my engine that is how I'm gonna go...
Where do you get "Blue Magic?" Sounds like LSD to my old ears... -L-

The silver motor on my Dyna still looked like new at 1 1/2 years old before I sold it. I used to hand wash it with Harley Sun Wash and scrub the motor when needed with a tooth brush.
