sorry, which bike?? One of mine the swingarm is powdercoated black. The other is standard and i got a brass wire brush, Autosol and Gunk mixed it all together and brushed like hell till it came up clean.

Now all i do is get some Gunk in a spray bottle, spray it on and wipe clean.

gunk is basically shit cleaner!! Cleans all the oil, muck, grit your bike collects. Its about the best stuff ive tried!
