On the X1 there seemed to be two different finishes on the aluminum rear subframe, the semi polished or matte aluminum and a black paint or powdercoat was there different years or different colors that each was available? |

The matte finish coating was later years. There were bubbling - outgassing - issues with the semi polished coating, necessitating the change. Funny thing was when I went to get Erik's OK on the matte finish, he stated "That's what I wanted originally!" |

Loctite SF790 Will obliterate the coating in about 90 seconds. It will bubble and wipe off with a paper towels. REAL stripper in a can. Expect the same on the swing arm. Ran the finish until last year. It held up very good but now its getting polished. |
