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.

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.

Hi Guys! Just got my forks back from Brook Suspension, pleased would be an understatement. I got them to do all the work for me, so they rebuilt them and re chromed both legs to solve the pitting. The £119.99 included oil and oil seals and there weren't any nasty surprises, they are back in the bike and feel amazing! I plucked up the courage to ride it despite the cold, Can't wait to ride in better weather. I would highly recommend! :biker3:  http://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/services/forks-rebuilds-repairs-service/kawasaki/kawasaki-gtr1400-forks-rebuild-repair-service.html

Thanks for all your hospitality guys! I spoke a lady at Brook Suspension yesterday called Ellie, seemed helpful. Im going to send my forks for rechroming and a rebuild, it worked out 140 quid for the chroming and they only charge 120 for a full strip down and reseal, so im going to drop them in on Saturday. I will let you know how i get on. PS: my get away bike would be a ZX6R  :mfr_lol: :lipsrsealed: :gun_bandana:

Hi, has anyone used this lot http://www.brooksuspension.co.uk/best-sellers-2/fork-rechroming-for-stanchions-both-legs.html for chroming? The price seems good but nobody I know has heard of them, any thoughts?
