My OEM pipes are always dirty with some crap that makes them ugly, no matter how well I wash them.
(See pictures after bike wash)
Don’t want to damage them, so what do you guys use to clean them?
Any metal/chrome polish? What is recommended?
Please advice.
Cheers,

I used to get this crap on my Gixxer 1000 and tried heaps of stuff then one day I thought I would try some Isopropyl Alcohol this stuff is used for cleaning electronics and guess what cleaned up like new without any hard work.

The following will not scratch OEM S/S systems & will remove all crap & discolouration to new - whole system.
Brasso & soft cloth - non abrasive.
Solvo Autosol metal polish & soft cloth - mildly abrasive.
Solvo Autosol & fine steel wool - very abrasive.
Brasso - also brilliant at polishing out fine scratches in plastic. Eg: clear plastic clock cover, headlight mask...mobile phone screens etc. Will return them to new.
