the more you 'restore' something like that head badge, the greater the chance of making it worse. the patina of age has more value than making it look shiny/new. if its really grody, maybe put it in an ultrasonic cleaner (since its off the bike), then rivet it back on.:deal:
I think I agree on the "restore" thing! It's not so grody as it is paint off so that the detail is difficult to see. I have been careful in cleaning it so far primarily lightly cleaning.
