Looking really good, Dizzy. You must be pleased

I did the forks on our first SV the hard way................Nitromors, wet and dry and Autosol...................and with them still on the bike too That was a challenge

The polishing wheel just speeded the whole process up the second time............and didn't make my fingers as sore. I still had to do the Nitromors bit though

think I must have had my polishing head on today, it started with polishing the other SV this morning.I got some brush on rust thing for the front subframe yesterday, painted that on this aft an wadooyaknow, it disappeared. so now i can tackle repainting that. Then I've spent a few hours doing the forks...so a good productive day....just shows you what an arguement with your employer will do...lol

Surely a nice bit of colour coding via a powder coating would look nice?

erm, maybe. The yolks aren't too bad, they were always blathered in some sort of oily substance to protect them..don't fancy colour coding the entire bike yellow though...lol

maybe go black with them? Or go daft and get them chromed, that is merely an option and in no way a suggestion, let alone one which I endorse!
