Duck oil just wipe it on with a cloth every couple of weeks, IT WORKS.

Just get a big glass case and a rat bike

I used to use car wax on the alloy engine cases on my old z900. Worked really well and stopped the oxidation.

I don't do dirt and crime on my ducatis to be honest, Like to ride them as much as possible but still like them to look shinny and cared for.
Dont really believe in sticking them in a case and just looking at them, made to ride and be appreciated in my view.

If I had a crappy runaround I would still like to keep it clean and shinny....
You know what I mean mate...

Yup, or WD40 on a cloth, wipe it on and leave it.

I find Meguiars NXT All Metal Polish very good, £7 from your local Halfrauds.

The blurb, NXT Generation® All Metal Polysh cleans, polishes, and protects all wheels, stainless steel exhausts, chrome air intakes and valve covers, aluminum, brass, copper, silver, and all other bright work components. Meguiar’s Microscopic Diminishing Abrasive Technology (MDAT) removes built-up oxidation, tarnishing, and staining faster and safer than traditional harsh abrasives.
