Kawasaki GTO 125, Time to Time Small Repairs/Cleaning

[Xulfiqar]

I hope you are doing proper 2 stage chrome plating and not just dipping parts. The factory chrome on these bikes was flashed hard chrome hence the long life.

The single dip peels off after a few months, I believe faisalabad is a textile industry city, they use large rollers on which their product is rolled on, Those items are hard chrome plated and refinished a number of times. Ask around which firm does that job. It wont be cheap but will be original.

I have had front shock stanchions (rods) refinished by such a place in Karachi and every time their job was better than a new genuine part. Ask them for a simple flash job.

Till your last post in this thread I really don't know the procedure, flash hard chrome then further single dip chrome.

Here they call it BRIGHT.(The ordinary chrome)

Now I shall check according to your advice

Bundle of thanks for so much good advises.

not so good losing motion in hilly areas as compare to 4 stroke you have to shift quickly in heavy gears. but smooth road it is killer machine
