I'm sure this is not a new idea, so does anyone know of , or own an XB with a polished frame? Saw the pics of the chrome 12r, made me think of it. I think even havin the frame natural aluminum finish would be cool..

Looks great. What are the steps/tools used to get from dull grey paint to shiny aluminum?

yeah, I was out riding... no more polishing until winter. I'm out!!

there should be a bunch of old posts on polishing if you do a search for it.

it took me a good sat-sun to do it right..(just the frame), and I still have to do more up by the stearing head

not bad to clean, but dont go out in the rain, or after rain, or if it looks like rain..... funny too, I live in seattle.
doesn't matter, I dont like riding in wet anyway.
well, except for the nice second gear shifts that instantly bounce off the rev limmiter and swing you sideways.
that, I like.
