350X hibernation 3yrs, time to polish

[sittinguy]

Yes 3 years, since I even took the cover off for longer than a minute. But the weather is good and there is no excuse. And its time, there is mold on the seat, fork boots, the tires and even the frame. Life..... I have the 2 riders that keep me satisfied when I need a quick ride, and time gets away...

But the Queen is out and the cleaning and the polishing of aluminium took place, over a three day period. Going for the start up next week.

Don't hate :)

Very nice. Cleaned up very well.

Were did you have it stored as it got mouldy(?)

In my shed, that I have A/C in, but I only keep it at 85 degrees, just enough to knock off the Florida summer heat and some of the humidity. It will get 110 in there with out air. I used to keep it in the house, but then,,, kids.

I hear you about the kids. I have twins. :)

May I suggest you do not put a cover on it. Sounds like the cover that you have is trapping in the moisture. Not much riding time for me this year. Work, kids ETC..

Its just a comforter draped over it, I've got to keep something on it to protect the NOS plastic. That is NOT WD40 on the plastic making it shine. All natural baby.
