Millineum is also our go to
However
Wait times are unreal at the moment
I’m waiting on 3 cylinders at the moment
I’d call and check on turn around times if time is a factor

you can call tom morgan racing . he can sometimes get it rushed thru millenium for plating for an additional fee, then he does the final finishing

Powerseal USA! Used them for years and as quick as a 2-3 week turn around. Always looks outstanding upon return.

Another vote for Millennium - they re-chromed two RM125 cylinders for me and they were beautiful when they came back and are holding up great...

The 87 doesn't have a chrome plated cylinder I don't think.
I'd see if Morgan has time.

I know for a fact Kawasaki had chrome (electrofusion) in 1983, can't remember what the first year was. I'm guessing 1979 or 1980.

We called it chrome back then and the term chrome has stuck even now that it is Nikasil. I believe Kawasaki went to Nikasil in 2003.

All 3 main companies do great work. I've had cylinders done by all of them. Go with who gives you best time table and price.
