RE: [DMCForum] 3 different hoods

["Dick Ryan" <deloreanbiker@xxxxxxxxx>]

The "X" can appear on ANY of the hoods.  It occurs
when, over time, owners exert too much pressure on the
hoods while cleaning or polishing.  The "X" is simply
the reinforcement structure you see on the under side.
 

Exert very little pressure on your hoods when cleaning
them regardless of which of the three hoods you have.
