Killer bike , what was the ceramic wax you used? If you put an open end wrench on the flat sides of the seat clamp when you tighten it you can keep the AS head straight.

Just a mild OA bath. Then a bit of polishing compound with a wax applicator being very careful with the pins.

I used evaporust gel with the chrome parts.

One coat of maguires cleaner wax to seal.

So far so good.

What is an OA bath? Sorry, I'm new to this forum.

Looks like you lost the pins on the tank and the guard. Is that from the OA bath? I never used that stuff and I probably never will. Steel wool and WD for me.
