yeah its certainly sore on the fingers, just used one of them scotch brite pads pads with wd40 and autosol
must be mad to sit and polish for hours.
done 3 or 4 each night , couple of weeks and your done
could do with one of them clips which hold the gear cable down wazza . one i have chrome is starting to peel
also on the lookout for better set of handlebars for it
