Used a little Neverdull on my Rebel. Just purchased it for 1600 and decided to clean it up. I like it. Im impressed

I bought an '02 rebel last year for $1200 that had some surface rust much like what you have shown, I used an SOS pad and in about 30 minutes the bike looked like a new one.

Nice looking bike, now that you have gotten the initial cleaning out of the way, it will be much easier to stay on top of the cleaning chore.

Hey Big J see pic number 4? How do I get that rust off the two pieces connected to that black cable? Is it done for to where I gotta get another piece? Or can I restore it?

If the never dull or the SOS pad trick dosent work, the you may be able to mask them off a paint them with a silver wheel paint, you can find it at most any auto parts store.
