I spotted some yellow greenish stain on the front trailing swingarm and it's getting more and more serious. They are dried and hard to remove. Have seen this in a few 1150GS i've seen. What can I use to remove the stubborn stain, and what are they actually?

That's the Telelever.
The one the back wheel is bolted to is the Parlever.
You'll soon get the hang of it
Good see Ash (despite being daft) knew what you were referring to

I caught the term from some ebay sales. It's a nice community here, always sth to learn. tx
Thanks for the link, and JoeC too. Also looking out for brass fuel line QD connectors to replace the OEM plastic ones. Beemerboneyard has them but at a hefty cost. Trying to find wholesaler co if they make them.
