Some of the older forum members had theirs powder coated, I, like many others prefer to polish them.
If it aint sharp I can play with it

You see I agree with you Monty, I do like the polished look, especially with a few well chosen and tasteful decals,

Just I saw the Husky and quite liked the gloss black haha

Mines polished too I would only paint it if it had deep gouges in it ( after its been filled of course).

I might clean mine eventually. Polishing takes time out of riding.
I drink too much, I swear too much, I ride too fast and I crash too often.

It is a universal impossibility for me to leave my tools alone and my bikes standard. 'It must go faster!!'
