Tips to make motor look like new

(1/3) > >>

*King*Kong*K*X*:
Does anyone have any tips on how to make the motor cases look better/new? :?

Polar-Bus:
Eagle One cast mag wheel cleaner. Be carefull the stuff has a healthy concentration of acid. Spray it on, quickly rub it in with a scotchbrite pad, and hose it off. The aluminum will look like new !

Foxx4Beaver:
Hey Polar,where can that Eagle One be purchased,I'd like to try some of that!!....thanks.

mlstoner660:
You can soda blast the motor and it'll look brand new. There's a post some where on the site by b.d.I.or Stewart showing their set up with before and after pics. Works great and u don't have to use any harsh chemicals. It's real easy. Ill see if I can find the post and put up a link.

and to keep it looking new   wash it after every ride with a pressure washer. ive kept my kx motor so clean this year you can even eat off it. well kinda..  :roll:

yes it can be a pain in the @$$ to clean it every minute but it does make it easier to perform work on the bike with out getting parts dirty that shouldnt get dirty. and plus its appealing to have a clean bike   :-o
