Chroming side cases and heat guard?

[exrider123]

Does anyone know how well this will work?...and is the heat guard steel if so will it rust and how strong is chroming..and no i dont want to polish it

thanks

The heat sheild on the 400ex is aluminum, on the 300ex i think it is aluminum also. Not sure about chroming toughness, ask papy or possibly popo

Chroming is strong, but in the end it will chip, flake, etc...I would highly recommend you get it polished.

what do you guys use for polishing ? also what parts can you polish on a 250r? i was looking into polishing a couple things but i wasnt sure what i can and cant do? also does anyone have any pics of anything they polished on an r?

[twisted threads]

On your 250r you can take off your side cases and polish them up. It takes a few hours but it looks good after your all done. I use Mothers Polish to polish stuff.

Hit that with a little less grit sandpaper and repolish it.

["BLAHH"300!!]

do you really need sand paper for the cases?
..can't you use aircraft stripper? then never dull or mother?

my motor's ganna be complete when it come's back, and i'm not ganna want to bust it back apart....
..can i strip it, then polish it, while it's together, but out of the frame?.....or are there some corners i can't get to the will make it look like ****
