Hello
I was going to be a comedian and just leave that word there on it's own but I decided against it. I have a 2007 DL1000 which to be fair is in pretty good condition, agricultural compared to my BMW but makes a good winter ride.
I originally joined to see what variety of things people had done to their flaky water pump paint, seeing as I'm probably going to do mine enamel gloss black. Had a search and I see a few have also required respray
The rest of my casings are not bad to be fair but I don't think the previous owner did winter.. which I do. Did Suzuki paint the water pump with paint made froma rare strain of cheese? My K1200RS engine paint has only a couple of light marks and it's done 70k miles in all weather.
Anyhoo, I shall continue browsing and reading, it's good to see what others have done and get ideas to develop and play with.
Cheers
Max
