Z1R silencer repair and re-chroming

#1 PostAuthor: Peter55 » Thu Jan 30, 2025 5:04 pm

Hi all
Does anyone know where I can get a small dent in a silencer repaired and then re-chromed.
I live in Essex but will post to a company that is recommended.
Cheers Peter.

Hi
I may have found a way of getting the silencer repaired so I might only need to find a somewhere that will do the chroming.
It seems that a lot of companies are reluctant to chrome silencers as they pollute their chemical tanks.
Does anyone know a place that will chrome silencers.
Cheers Peter

I've used RS plating near Manchster. Reasonably priced and great quality.

Also petrol/ethanol proof float bowl gaskets. IMD pistons preferred seller.
