Bugs get baked on the chrome headers of my 2017 CB1100 EX. I tried a number of modern cleaners and polishes to remove them, but no luck. So I went bought some [url=http://www.canadiantire.ca/en/pdp/autosol-metal-polish-0392954p.html#srp]Autosol Metal Polish at Canadian Tire. Its something I have used on chrome motorcycles headers since the 60s.

You will need some rubber gloves and some old socks. Spread a line of Autosol down the header, and spread it around with a glove. Let it sit for a couple of minutes. Wrap a sock around the header, twice if it is stretchy. Pull the sock back and forth and slowly roll it up and down the header. The sock will turn black, but your headers will come clean and shiny.
