As I am cleaning up some parts from a parts bike I bought I see alot of cleat Coat on the3 aluminum (hubs top of the triple tree) I am wondering if this was from the factory or did someone coat these parts. I have yet to check the original parts on my bike. Also wonder if once the parts are cleaned if clear coating is a good option ?

Thanks

Jon

Jon, clear coated from the factory. I strip and polish, then leave them bare. It's easy to polish the parts back up with Mothers. The clear will yellow, and peel over time.

davmoto what are you using to strip the clearcoat off?

Aircraft stripper in a rattle can. I get it at Kragen. It works really well.
