Frame Polishing

Ever since I polished out my frame, I've had people asking me to do theirs, so I'm finally opening up shop.

This will be a total part time deal, most of the work being done on the weekends. I should be able to have about a week turn around or so.

I have no overhead, since it's just a side gig for me, so I'm sure I can beat any price out there. I'll also be posting pic's soon of my work, and trust me I'm detailed when it comes to this stuff.

Bring me a quote, and I'll beat it, and it will look better than the rest!

PM me for contact info.

I'm sure you've all seen this pic, but here's my ride after I finished the frame, and a pic of Flawless Rear Rim.

More zoomed in detailed pics to come.

EDIT: UPDATED WITH PRICES

Frame/Swingarm/Subframe = $450

Rear sets: $30
Passenger pegs assembly: $25


Rims:
Rough cast aluminum = $250 per set
Smooth cast (gixxers etc) = $225 per set

If you find a better price, bring it to me and i'll beat it. PERIOD. Get it in writing, and I'll beat it by 10 percent.

Gonna be a while bro. To be honest, I've got a set of rims and a Gixxer at my house right now to do. Then I've got about 6 bikes lined up.

And BTW, F4i's are a total pain in the *** to polish, TRUST ME, I would know.

Honestly, if you want it done, gimme a call. I just got myself a F4i swingarm off Ebay for cheap. I'm gonna polish that once I get it. I guess we could do your frame and swap out swingarms and be done. I could work you out a sweet deal too. Get in touch with me. I think you already have my number, if not PM me.

Re: Frame Polishing

Don't worry I'll buy that one too. $25 bucks with the shock assembly. I couldn't pass it up.
