J.R. Luksik of CBX-tras has created superb NEW reproductions of Honda’s discontinued rear wheel dampers for Honda 6 Cylinder CBX, DOHC-4 “F” and VF Bikes.
I was happy to assist with a little R&D assistance …mainly by hacking up an old wheel! 🙂

(Note: I don’t supply these…order directly from Keith Fletcher)
For GL1000 graphics I recommend Keith Fletcher. Keith can supply exquisite reproductions of frame decals, pin-striping sets for the “tank, “radiator shrouds, side cover decals, etc. Keith can supply complete pin-stripe sets for the 75 and 76 GL1000’s to match all available factory colors.
Mike Horne does all my polishing work. He is very familiar with the GL1000, GL1100, CBX and similar machines. Mike does superb work at reasonable prices …highly recommended!

Due to environmental regulations, many platers are being driven out of business. It’s getting very hard to find firms that will take on small projects typical with classic Honda restoration work. There is no longer any decent plater in my local market.
I am happy to have found Classic Components located in Santa Ana, California. These guys turn out exceptional chrome at reasonable prices.
Here are “before” and “after” pictures of some recent work they did for me. Good chrome is hard to photograph, but this work was PERFECT!
This vendor understands that surface preparation is the key to good chrome work. Superior work with quick turnaround. Highly recommended!

Tom Davis does all my powder coat work. He is a motorcycle “nut” (Triumph restorer / collector). Prep is the key for good powder coating.
