I've tried just about everything on mine: Greased Lightening, Eagle 1 Aluminum Polish, Soap, Engine Degreaser. Out of everything, the Greased Lightening worked best but it's far from clean. If you ride 'em hard, they will just look like that.

watered down muriatic acid works excellent. BUT if it's mixed too strong it'll eat the engine in 2 pieces so BE CAREFUL!

superclean works great as well that is what I clean all of my engines with. We use it at work as well to degrease customers engines before trying to find an oil leak or whenever we do a larger service on their car.
