That looks awesome, you did a really good job on that. I am going to pull my rear wheel off this winter and polish that. I am thinking about doing the forks also. Keep up the good work.

Hey WildWill,
That's a really nice job! I am also doing a Buell chopper build and have been wondering what to do with the forks. I hate that yellowish anodized coating on them. I was thinking of polishing them and then considered painting them.
How hard was it to polish them? What did you use?
Thanks.

I like it. Chrome and paint can get scratches, but you can always bring polished back to new.
