thanks :D was debating to polish the swingarm but i thought that with the crap of the chain it would just ruin it, my m8 at the powder coaters does any colour u can imagine and i think that the silver almost makes it look factory again! more pics over the week back off nights 2morrow so more work 2 be done :D

Yayoboy, The frame looks bang on mate!

How long did it take you to polish? The reason I ask is that I've got mine in bits at the moment while the yokes & forks are being replaced and engine is getting re-built.

By the way, if you don't mind me asking how much did the wheel's cost you to get powder coated?
