The Harley ones are so polished up that they look like chrome. I watched Ebay and got a great deal on one.

I have a Harley linkage, which looks like chrome. There's really no difference.

The polished ones are "better", because chrome ones will peel ,and the polished stainless will not.

Just make sure you go with heim joints on both ends. No matter how nice its polished, it'll never match chrome, unless you polish it faithfully on a regular basis.
