    Seriously, nice job. Great looking paint as well. I'm curious about what was done with the aluminum on the fork tube bottoms.

    Thank you! The fork lowers we’re polished with 300, 800, 1500 then 0000 Steel wool, followed by Mothers Polish. If you want a satin finish you can then use Scotch Brite and twist the leg to give it a consistent brushes look.

    Hey- I thought that was nuts too! No, I’ve been building this for 2.5 years and still have it. But at least I feel Ike I could break even on a sale, assuming my labor was free 🙄
