Pappy its been awhile since I've been on here. Got out of the quad stuff and now on 2 wheels.

Anyway, I have a 2007 Kawasaki Vulcan 900 Custom that the lower fork tubes are a little grungy looking. I was wondering if you have ever done any lowers and or could they be done. I don't want to have them polished cause of the work to keep them nice and I like the ease of wiping it down and done.

I was looking for like powdercoat chrome color.

I need to have the fork seals done in them so this is why I am going to this extent.

Thanks again, Brock

Ive done Harley and a few street bikes before. As long as they are 100% disassembled and washed/degreased it shouldnt be an issue. The Chrome to me ends up looking like a bright silver.

Washed and degreased is not a problem.

What color do you recommend other than Chrome? I want to keep them looking pretty much a stock. Would a Metallic Silver look better?

Also what the price on doing them? roughly?

If they are bare aluminum it wont be to bad, a geuss would be around $45 to $60 depending on the color etc. They offer some cast and aluminum colors but I cant say for certain until i see the stock coloring
