General topics » Scratched speedo lens...

Hi, I have a scratch that has appeared on my speedo' lens.... Bloody annoying as I treat the bike with the utmost care, so not sure how it got there? anyway, it's there so.... Anybody know of anything that might polish it out? I am also thinking of getting a 'Speedo Angel' to prevent more scratches going forward, but would like to lose the scratch before fitting (if possible!)! What about the Rottweiss polish from Nippy Normans? Anyone used that?? Thanks ... Dudis.

There are certainly many plastic polishes on the market, but who knows how these would work on your lens plastic material. That stuff looks a little odd to me. I guess you would have to give one a try and see what happens. I hope the scratch isn't too deep. You might check with your dealer and see if they have any suggestions.

Isn't there a Missendon Flyer you tube video on that very subject?

Maybe it was for a Ducati, but worth a peruse.

it's not really deep and in some light difficult to see but it is about an inch long and it annoys me! I asked the dealers who would not commit to advice on polishing but did suggest a new lens at £125:00 plus fitting!

what about toothpaste - it's a very light abrasive and I've seen a number of comments advocating the use, including from the guy who runs http://www.k2a.co.uk/ who is a fellow BMW rider

I have had good experience polishing fairing screens (to remove scratches) with brasso wadding - I think that would be worth a try its quite soft material - start in a corner with whatever you use and see if it has any effect.
