Spent the weekend putting new goodies on.

[Easy Ed]

Yup, I polished mine a couple times too using the same polish I used on the back wheel of the 1999 HD Night Train. Now I don't bother with it.

I too take the skid plate off when I do a lube, oil and rotate the tires so I can look around at the underside of things.

Different strokes for different folks
