Hi. Guys,

Thanks again Ash,
Will check out links as soon as I get a chance, and I now realise strap that came with bike was in box with spare parts and I think it is for Hondamatic, how I got hat one I don't know, so will have to get right one.
Cheers Jock.

Hi Guys, Have finally decided which re-chromer to send parts to, have gone with Derby Plating, posted today they said they would have a look and contact me about suitability and price, so am on tender hooks waiting for news, its worse than waiting on my first born ( and only one ). Will keep you posted as things develop. wish me luck. Cheers Jock.

Hi. Ash, Re. Seat Foam from Moretti, emailed him and after a bit of a delay due to unforeseen circumstances from his end, he has finally managed to post of seat foam and seat cover, I was waiting for total with postage so I could pay, then have them posted but he has sent them before even being payed, not many trusting folk like that around, one of the good guys, expect them soon. Jury still out on where to send bits for re-chroming, will be down in your area whichever one I decide. Thanks All for help and info. Cheers Jock

Thanks All, This is like a merry go round, same old story some good reports and some bad ones. Wish I had your knowledge and expertise Ash, as I would not know where to start, that is why I am looking for good reliable firm who can do it for me. Can see this is going to take a while just for me to decide where to send parts. I have little enough hair will end up with none soon.  Cheers Jock.

Thanks Hinomaru,
Wish I was in good old US of A, shipping parts there would cost me more than the parts were worth, great pity.
Cheers Jock.

Hi Guys, Me back again asked this question on post about KO tyres, but in case you all missed it was wondering if any of you enthusiasts knew of a really great re-chroming shop, all blogs and people I have spoke to so far give conflicting replies, one says best since sliced bread another don't touch with barge pole, so will ask again anyone know of a really! really! great at re-chroming. Cheers Jock.
