Default Polish the lower legs w/pictures
Spent a few hours this afternoon, polish the sliders, what a difference! Starting with paint striper to remove clear coat, sanding with 150, 200, 400, 600, 800, 1000 and 1200 grits. Polish with a high speed drill, flitz ball and autosol, a lot of elbow grease lol.

Nice to see shiny street bob for a change! IMO black is getting boring!

I think your boots look great with chrome, do you have a full picture? I like to add a pair of fork gaiters someday.
