Is this normal? The coolant hose (visible through the left fairing) has what seems to be blotches of crap all over it. What does everyone elses look like?
I just bought the bike new and got it from the dealer like this:
I've had 4 Pani's and never had that, maybe cleaner (mr sheen) was sprayed when it was in the showroom. If it was me I wouldn't worry maybe a bit of armor all might cure it.
My hoses look similar in a couple of areas that are kind of hidden. I wiped part of it off and haven't seen it come back so I stopped worrying about it. It could be anything from assembly to something the dealer cleaned the bike off with.
