LMAO on the "Not your fault hug"
What a beautiful bike! Great job, man.
It is no coincidence that man's best friend cannot talk.

I’d be interested in exactly what product is really good for motorcycle mufflers, not the hot downpipes but the chrome exhaust part…

Pinnacle has some exhaust cleaner and I use it with the Lake Country Exhaust Polishing Sponge. Or you can get some chrome polish, I’ve used Mother’s before but I’ve also read good things about CarPro Metallicut. I use Collinite Metal Wax for protecting my exhaust tips and it makes them so that the soot wipes right off with a sponge.

i spent a bit of time on the tailpipe, as well as the accents on the fenders....i removed those for polishing
i used a drill with a foam pad on it for some spots on the tail pipe, and for those spots, i used a Chem Guys metal polish....applied a bit on the problem spots, wheeled it out for a bit, and repeated
I could have got the job done just with NevrDull, but it would have taken way longer, once I had them cleaned, I used a prep on them, buffed em up with a MF and then I sealed them with CanCoat as well, after the bike was totally done, I did one last wash and detail with ECH2O. leaves a nice shine on both paint and chrome
and thanks for the props, i showed some pics to my service guy at my local HD dealer and he's seen what I did with my bike as well, in fact, they know not to ever wash my bike when i take it in...they know im picky
he said they were considering offering a high end detail to customers and he is wondering if I'd be interested in taking on a project or two a month....the timing is really great, I'm thinking I need a side hustle, and what a great way to earn some extra spending money than to work on machines I love
