The oil tank on my H2 is kind of yellow and grubby and I was wondering if anyone had any experience cleaning the tank to make it look new again. I've tried putting it through the dishwasher but it still looks grubby. Can it be bleached?
Thanks,
Kevin

I don't think there is a process to reverse that condition.

Gonna be out in your neck of the woods at the end of the month. Staying on the Queen Mary for a few nights.

Go see the USS Iowa while you are here in Long Beach. Its just over the bridge in San Pedro. Worth the visit. Oh and also the Kawasaki Heritage Center as well...

Skeptic all you want Jim (I used to be like you) but when you see one Up Front and Personal - you'll change your mind. :o
