I repainted the top fairing sides on the 10R a couple of weeks ago.
Nothing fancy, just a bit of filler and rattle can Kawasaki lime green
where there had been some sort of brand sticker.

Today I noticed a couple of sticky spots on the right one where the
master cylinder has dripped brake fluid on to the paint.

I *think* it's just that the reservoir cap wasn't completely tight -
there was a dark band around it a few days ago and I did tighten it
up.

I rememember now why I don't do much cosmetic work on bikes.

you should know better than peel off a sticker put on by Bonwick

the missing bits you filled were left in a car park just outside Laon

If I should bin, think only this of me:
There is some corner, of a foreign hotel carpark
That is forever Kawasaki. There shall be
In that rich tarmac some fairing scraps concealed;
A fairing whom Japan bore, shaped, made aware,
Gave, once, her flowers to love, her ways to roam,
A bike to be abused, breaking English law,
Washed by the rains, crashed by cack handed throttle control.
