Hi Ogri,
Did you put together your own zinc plating kit or did you buy as a kit?

Looking good Ogri. I bought the same repro bars and compared them to the ones on my original 400/4. They were exactly the same length although the ones I bought were not from Burtons but another e-bay shop, there's a few places selling these.
Good luck with the rebuild and keep posting progress photos.

I bought one of these kits you get but I also bought a vairaible power supply the type an electronics person would use and I put in a fish tank heater to keep the electrolyte at the correct temperature and a fish tank pump to agitate the liquid It takes a bit of experimenting with the  current and voltage but one you get it set up you can start a production line.

Thanks Ogri,
Haven't got enough bikes to justify setting that up, would be nice to have though. Cheers

To be honest it more hassle than its worth but Im one of these people that when I get a bee in my bonnet to try something I cant let it go, I have a garage full of equipment and tools that I have just used once to fix something that I could have easily replaced for a fraction of the price, its my naturally inquisitive engineering twisted mind.
