Cleaning Lower Forks
Cleaning Lower Forks
Was looking at some old pictures of the Glide and was noticing how bad the lower front forks are looking these days and was wondering if anyone knew of a product that will get them looking good again.
These are the stock front forks not the chromed ones. I know chroming them is a option, but an options that's a little out of my grasp right now.

Lower legs
First off, glad you didn't get blown away with the tornado.
I use Mother's Aluminum Polish. I kept my lower legs looking pretty close to chrome ones using Mother's.
The first time is a bear, but once you get them polished up, it's pretty easy to keep them looking good.

Mine looked so bad I bought new take offs on this forum and replaced them. They were $50 shipped and you don't see them that low very often. Usually $50 + shipping. The new ones were very low miles and look nice inside and out. i will polish up the old set and swap them back if these get ugly. They have a clear coat (probably powder) from the MOCO that gets damaged by rocks, bugs and brake dust.

Lol, life is a learning process ain't it. Mine got to looking pretty chitty, ended up polishing myself. Took awhile but I'm pleased with the results.
