When I had my recent crash. The bike was upside down. When I flipped it back over some gas ran out of the carb and some other hoses onto the engine case and frame. It stained it a yellowish brown color. Has this happened to anyone else? What did you do to get it off or is it permanant?

I lost the overflow tubes on my carbs and it did the same thing. If you use dawn and a toothbrush after alot of scrubbing it will come off, at least mine did.

I lost my vent hoses too and said to hell with it and made everything all better...doesnt make it runany slower but its kinda ugly. Leave it alone and it'll slowly wear off, thats what i did. It yellows the clear coat in the paint. I thought about color sanding it then buffing it out but, damn i got better things to do.
