[QUOTE="vibrac, post: 59968, member: 60"] First thing to state in my experience of R30 the internals of an engine even between seasons remain the cleanest you can ever expect never found any gummy deposits at all and I can forget worrying about getting oil on my hands simply wash them at the end of the exercise. The outside where the air gets to the oil is a different matter I always wipe off the suplus immediately (I had a warped timing cover on the GF last season) but then carb cleaner (expensive) or petrol does the job (gloves on now) often WD40 seems to do the trick. Normal cleaning follows no worse than a conventional oil - god I hate cleaning a bike after a meeting , I enjoy it better just before even though its harder, absolutely the wrong attitude:oops: [/QUOTE]
