Water spots removal - Bosti - 06-17-2023
Hello.
Long time since my post and still a proud CB owner. Since I want to keep my CB for a long time in the future I have a
question for more experienced. I have what I believe water spots on and in between engine fins.
How do I remove them?
Learned my lesson, been using air blower now after the wash.
I would be very grateful for your suggestions.

It is great stuff. After buying the small spray bottle I just now get the big refills. It lasts a long time if you don’t go too crazy spraying it on.

I bought one of the big jugs of S100, but I haven't used it yet. Any part of the bike I should avoid with it? Says just to wet the bike, spray it on and let it sit for a few minutes, and then rinse well. Do you guys take your seat off first or just leave it on?

Bosti, vinegar might be a good solution for your problem. Spray some in those spots, let it sit for awhile and spray water in there. Then use compressed air to blow out the residue or wipe with a clean towel. Get it all out before riding.

Thx
I am lucky in that my home water system has a water softener. Water spots are not a problem for me when letting a vehicle dry. That's one of the many benefits I enjoy.
