WD40, spray on and let it soak.

Add a little Sea Foam to the oil. It should clean right up. My first '83 was pretty grungy, and I had to use a flashlight to get a dim view of the level. After changing the oil a few times with quality oil, the glass cleared up.... I might add that I change oil twice a year rather than trying to see how many miles I can get out of it. 10-30/winter, 20-50summer.

Turn the glass inside out and use WD40.:whistling:

 

Well dang, I always washed the out side of the glass when cleaning the bike, never had an issue seeing the oil.

 

Now I have to wash the inside too :crying::crying::crying:

Fill with Tide and run for 1/2 hour should do the trick!!:rotfl::rotfl::rotf::sign just kidding:

It's amazing how a thread can go south so quickly...... :whistling:

 

 

That has something to do with the age of most of us!:backinmyday: Our minds start to wader and then we tend to just kind of wander off talking about the last thing we heard.:whistling: And why are we going south again?:think: Is there a party down there or something?:confused:

'Going South' is an old expression used for something that starts to deteriorate. Of course this is way before your time....:whistling: :backinmyday:
