I was thinking about polishing my stock triple clamps on my RMZ 450, top and bottom. I know it will be hard, but I have nothing but time(six months till I ride again.) I have one question though. What do you guys think I should use to do it?
The Shop
I think it looks awesome. It's alot of work, but it's worth it.
If you do it, please post photos and I will send you some free monster stickers and a helmet Mohawk.
I know that these are factory bikes and triple clamps but this is kind of what Im going for.
Its just my opinion tho, don't let me stop you, I respect customization of any kind at the end of the day...
Pit Row
here is another pic of his bike, I really dont think that it looks bad, i actually really like it. Even the Rockstar Suzuki bikes have polished triple clamps, theirs more polished than these, from what I could see in pictures.
Billet:
youtube is your friend for tthis kinda work too

however this guy's yellow buff cuts out the need for the extra fine sanding but they are pricey. more ways to skin a cat but a rag and mothers would be torture on anything but the broad side of the frame spar. Good luck
Im the same way with my bike, I ALWAYS have the cleanest bike around, it doesnt matter if im riding the next day, my bike never goes up dirty, and all my riding buddies think im stupid as hell, but I take pride in my stuff and represent my sponsors very well. Heck, and another thing I just thought of, one of my sponsors is a machince shop, I can take them up there. BTW thanks for the encouragement
I also think it would be cool to get the brake calipers brushed to give them a billet look also.
