Cleaning Gray Metal on Nightster

Any one have any advice on cleaning this stuff? I have tried EVERYTHING, someone suggested scrubbing bubbles, worked awesome on everything except the gray stuff. I got down there with a toothbrush and dish soap, still nothing. Im out ideas. Any one know a good way to clean the gray metal around the engine and remove stains and other junk from it? Thanks.

S100 total cycle cleaner. Kind of expensive, but it works, and what is your time worth when your wasting it cleaning when you could be riding?

Yeah man, trust me I would rather be riding than cleaning but I have to sell the ride, sadly. I am a full time college student and the bills are stacking up. This will not be my last ride though.

Thanks for all of the advice guys.


Simple Green, I had a door-to-door salesman trying to sell me that stuff. He demoed it on my car and it was pretty amazing I might give that a shot since I have seen it in action.
