    '78 GS750E indicator stalk spruce-up

    Hi folks, what's the best method to remove or at least minimise the speckly corrosion on the plastic chrome stalks for the indicators.
    Cheers, Andy

    Never heard any way to make them look better. A few yrs. back you could get aftermarket (K and S technologies) replacements that looked exactly like OEM for under $30... Just looked at ebay and now they are over $40... Dang hard to imagine gone up that much.
