when your finshed with your bike you can work on my bike anytime Rob  

Hey Jukie.
Unfortunately as you now our bikes are never finished
But i might be able to fit yours in some were.
You can get 24 carat gold plating  kit's as well not that expensive
http://www.janekits.com.au/mainframe.php
 some selected parts  on your bike ,real gold plated  would look good on your bike.
I was nearly going to use gold on mine.

 I know what your saying for the belt covers open look good but not very practical For a daily ride bike.

PS
 If you or any one get a plating kit  i will be very happy to help any one get started or have a look at my set up if your in Sydney area or surrounds

In my mind there's no connection with your/anyone's poop chute....

KIT CONTENTS
  
Hi Bazz
They give you instrution booklet but a little vague read it about 20 time you'll be right and you can call him which i have done

They supply the electrolyte in powder form for a 4 litre kit.
 i just went to Cole's and bought 4 litre bottles of distilled water to mix it up and a few 3/4 liter containers with vacuum sealing lids.

And you need some heat source the chip fryers are the best i had an old one.
It's all on the web site http://www.janekits.com.au/mainframe.php

Just get the nickel kit.
If your in Sydney area your welcome to look at my set up and help you get started.

Tip polished the bolts or anything round in my pistol drill  just put em in the chuck spin them up and polish the surface with emery cloth and Brillo pads before plating.
and after plating samething but use a soft cloth and metal polish, autosole or similar

I copied this from there site.

The kits contain the chemical in crystal form to mix to make the required electrolyte. The brighteners are also supplied for each chemical. Anodes are supplied for each type of plating, be it nickel, zinc, or copper. A thermometer is supplied in the nickel kit, or dual kits. Pipes are supplied which are used as hanging bars for the jobs. Nickel wire is supplied to hang anodes on, and copper wire for hanging plating work on.
A bench top transformer is included to supply current at 1.5 AMPS, with adjustable voltage. Larger power supplies are available if required. A bridge wire is included to bridge copper pipes together if required. A book is included in the kits complete with instructions and tips. I am always available for back up help if required.

what do you use to take of the old plating , thanks for all that  can you just buy the nickel oxide and and nickel anodes  cheers bazz got every thing else

Hydrocloric acid removes the old plate, plus a 12v battery speeds it up.
But the how to manual is what you really need
Makes it easy a lot to learn even though it is simple it's all the little tricks.

You will need the anodes and electrolyte
the power supply needs to be around 12v/ 6volts variable  for small stuff .they are available from jaycar will get the part no later for you.But no cheaper than jankits
 kenco degreaser for the parts before plating works they must be spotless or it goes patchy.even finger marks will stuff you up.
AS IS SAID ITS ALL THE TRICKS

But for $160 for the nickle kit not worth stuffing around.

[Serious Groper]

Looks nice and clean 

My bike gets to dirty for me to bother about any of that stuff.

I'm happy to enjoy and appreciate the work others do with me sitting on my butt  [moto]

Jukie, if you Gold plate the bolts on your baby everyone will confuse it for a 'pimp my wheels special'!

[Jukie]

pimp me pimp me

[monsta]

nah, not to anal..  the devils in the detail!  

Tip polished the bolts or anything round in my pistol drill  just put em in the chuck spin them up and polish the surface with emery cloth and Brillo pads before plating.
 

I went with stainless on most of my bike, but not only did I polish the bolts I rounded the heads and got rid of any knurling.
I do it with the pistol drill at home, I have a buff for my bench grinder as well..  that was a good investment...
 but if I have heaps to do I'll do it at work on the lathe. The rounded heads seem to catch the light better...

Monsta, how do you hold the bolts securely while grinding and buffing them?
