Can you ever have too much chrome? I don't think so.

$40, slips right on nice and snug. Not chrome, polished aluminum but its hard to tell the difference. Great piece for the money. It really makes that ugly area look good.

I got some S100 engine brightener this year too so hopefully I can get the wrinkle black looking good as well.

My wife's 2004 V-Rod and an EFF'n amount of chrome and I spent too much time polishing it. Talked the wife into blacken out her Heritage so I don't have to polish it all day....

I polish all my chrome in the spring and then I just wash it a few times during the summer. I was using one of those Mr Clean spot free car wash guns that dispenses soap and then the spot free rinse in conjunction with a wash mitt. This year I am switching to S100, I have heard nothing but good things about it. Spray on, rinse off. After that hit it with the leaf blower and done.

Just because you have chrome doesn't mean you have to sit and polish it every weekend. Life is not a bike show.

Every day and every time I ride my bike it is in fact a "Bike Show"!! No one sees my bike dirty or even dusty but family!! That does NOT mean I am not up for a better way to do it though so I too shall try the S100. Mine very seldom even needs water, just a wet rag to grab the dust then bust out my trusty old California Gold detailer. Takes me about an hour unless my white walls and wheels need a good cleaning. I do use a hose when doing my white walls, that and those Mr. Clean pads, bleach and Westleys white stuff!

I happen to think that way too much chrome is just about enough.
