2005 Honda Shadow Spirit.
This little scooter set in the barn most of the winter and man was it dirty.
Hand washed and dried with leaf blower, then APC and a lot of time with a VX5000.
Meg's 105 & 205 followed with M21 on all paint.
Disassembled the windshield and polished all the aluminum brackets.
Machine polished a lot of the chrome or as much as possible with a white Hybrid pad and 105.
Worked on it off and on for the last 3 days but that also included adding about 70 miles on the odometer :)
Oil changed, fueled up and ready for another season.

Tank turned out great although it took going over twice with 105 and a orange pad to get all the defects out.

Great job on that Honda bike you sure know how to make chrome shine bright too
 
That is one great looking Honda Shadow. I was "trying" help one of my friends clean up a rusty POS used Shadow he bought, and one things for sure, it will never look as good as yours Bob.
 
Thanks Ed!
But never say never.
I use to work at a motorcycle salvage yard and restored bikes that were considered to be junk or basket cases. You would be surprised at what can be done with a rusty neglected scooter.

There's a few used/reconditioned parts on my little Honda.
