    Cleaned up my bike

    Cross posted from the motorcycle forum

    So I have a 2011 Triumph Speedmaster that I thought I had taken good care of. WRONG!

    A couple weekends ago I used a little Megs Ultimate Polish and was pleased with the shine, but upset with the scratches that popped out! So this weekend I used my Harbor Freight DA with 5" hex logic pads, Megs Ultimate Compound and Polish, and Collinite 845 to finish. Makes me want to get some smaller 3" pads for this type of job - maybe one day. Very pleased with the results! There's a couple of deeper scratches that didn't buff out, but I'm still very happy. I think she goes faster now due to the slickness!

    After taking the seat off, noticed some damage on the fender from old saddle bags
