My T500 has got a very dull alloy front wheel thats in need of some TLC. Whats the easiest way of cleaning and polishing the wheel back to a shine? Must I strip the wheel down to get at the hub for polishing or is it just hard graft poking a polishing head between the spokes? What about laquer? Will ordinary clear cellulose stay on the rim?
Also, can anyone advise me about my expansion chambers. I have got the cone sections nearly ready for welding together. They are taped and wired to the bike but is it best to tack-weld them while they are in place or is it OK to mark the pipe with matching marks and weld off the bike?
