Best polisher to use on motorcycle

**Zenreaver** · 03-20-2015, 09:23 PM

So, I'm completely new to this world, and have been doing research, but figure I'd ask the professionals for your guys opinions too. I am looking for a polisher, to use on motorcycles. Mostly aluminum, chrome, and plastic. I don't have a Lot of money, so only want to buy one machine..My hands aren't in the best shape, but I'm guessing any vibrations, would be easier to handle then trying to do it by hand like I used to.

So, I'm looking for suggestions on what sizes, and models.

Thanks in advance!

No need to have a polisher for a motorbike, your hands are your best friend, for such small surface ..

Been riding for over 20yrs, and never needed one..but after having a small stroke, my hands aren't up to doing it anymore

If i had only a bike to deal with i would probably have a Griots 3 Incher or a PC with a 3" backing plate, some 3 1/2 - 4 in pads and have a ball.

Rupes Mini or a LHR75. We do a lot of bikes and love both of these. Also if and when you want to go further a TA50 or the Harbor Freight 2" machine comes in handy. You could remove defects by hand but a machine reduces the process by hours.
