  1. Hi thanks Rob
    my name is stu ,i live in Stockton on Tees, and i ride a2012 multistrada 1200st which ive had from new its got 20.000 miles on
    i was washing the bike last night and noticed the paint starting to bleb and flake around the clutch cover and water pump area and was wondering if any one else has had the same problem ? And if so whats the best remidy ?
     
  2. SO SO MANY for the last 20 years... it's amazing how they still manage to sell bikes with such poor engine paint.

  7. Welcome - and don't get me started on coatings.....the truth will hurt - financially....if youre keeping it (or just want to look after it) then I recommend anything that needs recoating....coat it in Xylan...its pretty well everything proof, but expensive...
