every now and then i clean my motor and cases with Hotwheels wheel cleaner, just spray it on and let it sit for a minuate or two and clean it with a soapy rag. if its real dirty i use an engine cleaner/degreases that foams, that seems to work good, but if you do that dont get it near bearings. i always relube my swing are bushings and what not after i use it just in case

Thanks. .i am at it again today. Also, I want to touch the frame up and am looking for the dark grey color that my 02 300EX is. I know I can go to honda, does anyone know where I can find that color in a spray can for touchups? I have tried Walmart but it is not dark enough.

Menards usually has a lot of colors if walmart doesnt have it. I would say engine degreaser would get it off.

I saw the PJ1 paint and they offered "XR Silver" is that the frame color of my 02 300EX? It looks very dark grey on the frame.

Thanks,
