stained aluminium frame how do I remove them?

Depends on what you are calling stains....

I'm sorry, I left my crystal ball at home

Apologies,

 

Just noticed that isn't clear if you want to remove the stains or the entire frame.

I think its fairly obvious but if you all want to take the piss out the newbie then complain when no one posts or they don't return then be my guest!! 

 

I suspect that the bike has probably been cleaned with an acidic cleaner which may well have been left on too long and burn the aluminium! Not sure there is a lot you can do with it to be honest

pictures would help.

so it it stains from as Stu says or is it wearing spots (boots rubbing) the honda cbr and fireblades had it with earlish generations with thin suspectablw paint/lacquer.

you can polish it right back past the blemishes and repaint/lacquer but its quite a delicate, time and material consuming process. the other is to acid dip it and start again but is a specialist's job.

Pics would be best
