    So, I got my Bonneville Newchurch nearly new with 534 miles on it a month ago, never been out in the rain the guy that sold it me said. Well has now. Should I ACF50 it now or wait for the really bad weather:

    Great to see a bike getting used rather than just polished.
    Don't think you'll need any protection spray on now. I used FS365 all through the winter, gave it a thorough good clean a few weeks ago and all is good.

    I do like the look of your rear light unit and indicators!
    Good choice of bike by the way.

    As the roads are Salt free now I would look at FS395 if you intend to ride in the wet. If it's mainly dry and just getting caught occasionally then I would go PTFE based route. Great choice of bike as well!

    Peter,
    where did your rear light unit / indicators come from?
    I am really liking them and would like to know more about them if you don't mind sharing the info?
