Valve Cover Scaling
#6
I have some of that on my wheels on all my Honda vehicles..including the CB, ( even the Accord,and Ridgeline) and some on my engine covers on my CB. Too much riding, not enough cleaning lol.

After nearly 70,000 kms, I've got plenty of it. I don't think it points to any serious problems with the bike. Rather it's an example of the less-than-perfect build quality of the bike.

Cormanus I think this is different from the fin rot problem, that was paint flaking from the cylinder fins. There is no paint on the part that MTC has the oxidation on.
