Title: Chrome fork tubes
Post by: kaw002 on November 24, 2015, 01:41:30 PM
Hi guys. Im looking to get my fork legs re-chromed due to them being pitted/damaged. It may be wiser to buy new tubes but If I can re-chrome at a reasonable price I would prefer to do that. Does anybody have any recommendations as to where I can get them done? Im in Manchester.

I don't have any personal experience with this company, but they could be able to help

At first I wondered if Z-power would have a suitable replacement in stock but it seems that they don't, however I would suggest a quick call to them may help as I have bought stantions for classic Kawasakis from them in the past, they are a very good company  :yes:   

Good luck

Cheers, thats great. I also found a company whilst snooping through the web, £139 for the pair to re-chrome http://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/services/forks-rechroming-rechromed.html I called and they advise the lead time is 2-3 weeks. After looking and finding them on the web somebody then recommended them at work, Il be sending them over asap so I will let you know the outcome! Thanks again.
