I just broke it out yesterday (due to a warm spell) and noticed that the brushed aluminum (wheels,casings,etc.) has become pitted. I tried using Mother's Aluminum and Chrome Polish on these surfaces,but the pits are still visible, although somewhat reduced. Question: Is there a better product for my needs, or am I going to have to apply a hell of a lot more time and elbow grease to remove the pits? Also, what can I use to protect these surfaces the next time I store the bike for an extended time period? Thanks in advance, Bob Riley BTL Piscataway 4P-219 (201) 885-7133 pyuxcc!rjr
