are my throttle bodies farged up forever?
If this thread needs to be moved to the CBR1100XX forum, I understand, but I think this also applies to the Fireblade models, so I post it here, hope it is OK.

Attached pictures of my throttle bodies where I successfully (with brake parts cleaner) removed much of the nasty black coating in the bore, which of course turns out to be the good molybdenum coating...

1. Will this have any bad long term effects on my bike ?

2. Is there any way to put the coating back, or maybe do something to help the situation ?

THANKS GUYS, really appreciate the help.

Stop stressing. No biggie. You'll just have to clean more often.
