i ride it to work but put it in the work shop, to many people look with their hand's not their eye's, i realy pisses me off when people start to touch it,

Sweet bike. No way though I could ride it with the clip-ons that low with my short arms. My back,shoulders,forearms and wrists would be killing me! :'(

Very nice, awesome bike.
How about the forks, are they polished?
I'm starting to polish parts on my CB350, and it's a real pain, time consumming, dirty.
Thinking of powder coating, but the polishing looks so good.

While many polish themselves, I farmed out my polishing work. I paid $80 to have my fork tubes polished professionally as an example of pricing. While it may sound like a lot, if you're not already set up for polishing work, you'll spend a bit of money on equipment/materials anyhow. So if you're going to do a lot, and enjoy doing it, get set up. However, if you're like me and don't have the setup, the workshop or the inclination to do it yourself, there are folks out there who will do it.

Powdercoating is cheaper, but not by a huge margin. Coating two fork tubes would likely run $50 or so, maybe more.

Excellent thanks,
I bought some polishing compound, wheels etc. so I'll be doing it my self.
I'll have to bite the bullet and just get her done.
I've got a XR500 that needs a pipe, a GSXR1100 that needs a chain, tires and header wrap, a GSXR600 that needs a stock Alstare gas tank (if anyone knows of one for a '00 let me know), I need a mig welder and a list of parts for my CB350, so whatever I can do myself I'll be doing...like it or not.

the fork legs are chrome as they are steel, i sent my polishing out to be done, it looks better than i could do.
