Polished up a set of scoops last weekend. I love the new shiny look, but DAMN was it hard! I didn't really know what I was doing, but got a lot of help from Kenneth Kirkpatrick's instruction page: http://www.geocities.com/am20924/VMaxPolish.html Didn't follow his instructions to a tee, but the job got done and they turned out very well. Used an extra set of scoops and side covers I got from NaughtyG's ebay salvage bike, so I wouldn't screw up the near perfect stock two-tone scoops and covers.
Anyway, after almost a full day of hard work and skinned fingertips, the things turned out awesome. I like the old school look. Just a note to anyone considering polishing out their scoops, it's alot more work than you would think, but I'm very happy with the results. Here's some before and after pics.
