  10. depends if it still has the cat in , the standard system cant be that heavy the post office can be a bit expensive at times but if you send it standard parcel it not to bad , i always use "interparcel " or parcel monkey with interparcel you get a drop down box to put all the parcel details like length and wieght and then it will give you a choice of services and its normaly very cheap ,i have just sent a parcel that was 21k and 120cm long and got it for 8.99 plus vat for a 48 delivery with ups and you can chose pick up time aswell

  12. That's freakin' bargain. I polished my own but it takes a long time and is a messy job, for £50 it's not worth doing it yourself, especially if you have to buy the kit. :upyeah:

  16. yep the lot , my polisher is a big bugger 3hp it will polish anything with the right compound , i normaly start with a course compound on a sisel mop and finish with a cotton mop with a fine compound and it will last a long time

  19. i can also remove anodising for polishing or just keep it plain or if you have some tacky faded items and want a new look , im polishing all the engine cases on my 900ss for a reto look as well as the swing arm and foot rests and yoke
