Have tried all sorts of stuff. I think my main problem is it's only polished aluminium and I suck at polishing most metals that need that much care.
I do pretty damn good on chrome though lol.

Been meaning to ask how much y'all chrge for the bike pollishing stuff.

That would be a question for Jebus, who specialize in bringing your ride back to life.

For the upcoming winter months Im keen to meet at the earlier time of 4.30pm (could be different meet place each week). At least then we will still get a ride in before dark. Put it this way, I will be going for a ride each week, anyone else welcome to come along

Hey guys, yeah I'm still around. Just been busy sorting my shit out before I fuck off overseas. As I was tell Chris, I hope to get down there on a Thursday night soon. Should be easier now as I won't be playing hockey for a couple of weeks coz I broke my fucken thumb last night.

Give it to Jimmy out this way. he'll have them mint in 10mins and probably only charge you about $10. Btw, when metal's been polished properly the last thing you wanna do is use brasso or any metal polish on it, It'll only damage the finish. use kerosene or a similar solvent to clean it.

Well when I walked into work on Thursday morning and realised I'd already done 34 hours, and no matter how many hours I work I only get 40hr salary, I made an executive decision to finish work early on Thursdays through the winter, yep, life sucks working
