Polishing

Picked these up from Agbrigg Chrome platers in Leeds, £60. (Other rocker covers included). Turned it round in a week, though he rang me after 2 days to say it was done.



Really chuffed with the result! Cant wait to build the bike back up now I have all these polished and chrome parts. Need to pull my finger out and get painting, though house moving issues have slowed things down alot.

It certainly wont be this month :(

Chrome plating

Picked up my Chrome plating on Saturday. I used Agbrigg Chrome platers in Leeds. The bloke there Shaun is a biker too and so pretty sympathetic to our needs! He said that it would be a few weeks, but it only took him one week!! This was most surprising as I had previously rung Prestige platers in Mexborough and they were talking 3-4 months!!!

I wasnt sure on the level of finish that I needed to have the parts in, so most stuff I had done to a fairly high standard myself. He said most people bring things in a lot worse state so I was OK. He has a big polishing and sanding wheel and gave me an idea of the level of finish that he can achieve there too. I also took my stainless pipes in a pretty rough state, and he cleaned and polished them up to a mirror finish. I was so impressed that I took all the other ally covers off the engine for him to do as well.

There is about 20 parts in this box but didnt want to unwrap everything.



The pipes:



This has certainly pulled my completion date forward - just need to paint everything else now!!
