Did my ACF50 a few weeks back, now I need a giant can of de-icer, came off night shift this morning and had to scrape a few mm of ice off the thing!
(the steam is the ice encrusted pipes and engine melting)
Rather you than me, I was miffed as my Volvo app wouldn't connect so couldn't preheat seats and interior while having brekkie, had to get out with deicer and leave the motor running, awful ; )
ACF50 awesome stuff sticks like sh1t! Mines being done tomorrow. Worth every penny
Are you having it done by someone else? I've seen a place over in Wilcot (All Year Biker) where they'll clean your bike and apply it for you, thinking that might be better for me for this winter at least.Originally Posted by shiftyblake
I've had it done by somone in the past on a couple of bikes, cleaned and dried the bike first then applied, they made a good job of it and cost me about £40 from memory although I was part of a group who had it all done the same morning.
I've applied it myself on some bikes for the last few years, more work and as I'm not so good at cleaning then probably not quite as good but cheaper. Certainly slows down corrosion on the bits that show at least.
Alan in Wilcot did mine about a month ago, was £60 and he did a much better job than I could do, and he's a really nice guy as well.
Bike looked great when it was done and protects all the electrics too, best £60 I'll spend on my bike this winter.
...and knowing me I'd get it all over the discs and tyres !

Forgive my complete ignorance but what is ACF50?
If you don't know, please ask the question, that's how we all learn. Hopefully DaddyCool's link explains.
