Still want to see a picture of the entire bike.
You think?
IMO its to smooth to be road rash, I don't see any pittting from the impact. Even the rubber on the hood is smooth.
The previous owner could've taken a grinder/orbit sander to it to try to clean it up I guess.
Remember this is the same side as the RD, I'd like to see pics of the RD to go more CSI.
If the RD is messed up, its road rash. ;P
It almost looks like its was sanded with 36 or 60 grit sandpaper.
I sand, & polish hardwook daily as my job.
I 2nd the request for full pics of this CAAD10!
