I am getting my wheels refurbished and have some questions.
I am thinking of having hubs & lower fork legs polished.
Were hubs originally painted? if painted best way of removing paint?
have heard of clear coat been used on polished parts
What type do I need, and what prep work is needed before painting?
Any help would be great
Thanks

I painted my engine a few months ago,I did not strip the engine. I blocked all openings and had the engine bead blasted. Painted it Simonz engine enamel..This paint requires curing so I had to make up a big plywood box and line it with tinfoil .
I purchased a cheap cooking thermometer on ebay, Used a heat gun to get it up to temp.
It took five hours to cure paint properly . very happy with end result.
I got the idea from sohc USA forum

It took five hours. very happy with then end result. The directions on the can says that it must be cured within 10 hours of painting so running the engine to cure it may not be an option. I also read some where that curing paint by running the engine is not a great idea as the top of the gearbox may not get hot enough, and this is the place where petrol will land if the carbs leak

Hi,
Here are some photo's I received from a guy selling a duel disc setup
that is on a 400 f . He said that this was an after market setup that
was sold by D.I.D. I have never heard of a duel setup that was available
off the shelf. any ideas?

Hi, Looking for advise again. does the oil pressure switch tread all the ways down?
Is there a seal for between switch and the oil pump?
My switch seem to take a lot of pressure to screw down, do not want to shear it

Hello, Hoping for some advise again.
the bearing in my clutch release plate is
not great, it does not turn as freely as I think
it should..Is it possible to press the bearing out
and get a replacement Honda or an aftermarket
bearing supplier?
Thanks
