I noticed about 3-4 small white spots on the plastics of my A14, like if the plastic was bleached. I have one on the fairing, under the front flasher, so I'm sure I did'nt use any stuff (chainwax, degreaser etc) in that area. Does someone else have those? Luke A14 4700 mi

Yes, but only where I've hit trail-side objects, or dropped it! When you bend or stress the GBG plastic, it develops these "hero" marks. That's where the older, white bodywork would be an advantage. Plus, I STILL prefer the early white/green/blue graphics. I don't hate the GBG, just don't like it. Oh well......

Yes...........spots, creases, other imperfections........it's nice, I never have to worry that the bike looks too good.

Just work the hair dryer over the spot being careful not to get it too hot. Use to work real good. Later, MM >
