I have a white spot where someone put an antenna with double sided tape.(not me) I removed the antenna and color came with it. What can be done to recolor that area?!

Get some Duplicolor bumper black paint from your auto supply store. Pull off the outer fairing and cover your mirrors, fender, etc. Mist the paint on those faded parts. It'll look like new.

Sounds like a lot of work but you can get it done in an hour or so.

Is there anything I can do to restore the shine and appearance of that whole dash piece other than taking the whole thing off and having it painted? Thanks for any advice, tricks or ideas that some of your seasoned pros use to keep your bikes looking sweet!
