TE/TC Cleaning a pitted dirty motor.

probably something not allowed anymore with the epa...but that black coating on those 80s swede cases is bombproof, lol..PIA to remove it...

Bog brush

It sure is. All the cases on my swedes still look brand new!

Yea it's funny, all my bikes are immaculate street n dirt bikes. All serviced lubed garage kept never put away dirty cause my OCD. On the other side my brother has a 04 crf450 with over 200 hours on it and all he does is adjust the very old chain and lube it with wd40 and rides the piss out of it. Changes oil once a year both oil n gear sides and has never had one issue. Sure his bike doesn't look very good but mechanically it's always started n never left him stranded. Plus he's a very big guy so ya know that thing is always working hard

yeah some kind of baked on semi gloss coating. paint stripper wont touch it, lol. probably just a good powdercoat
