Keeping Black Engine Like New!

Hi Red, your Midnight Special, what model was it? I have the 81' XS850GS Midnight Special. They are good looking bikes, only 3000 of each model made.

Dog,
It was the 650 Midnight Maxim, not the special, my mistake. Here's one for sale just like it on Ebay

Mine has been sitting in the garage waiting for the wife to polish it this last week. The only thing I spray on my black engine is water! If the triumph chrome held up as well as the black powder coating on the engine I would be one happy biker! 8)
