How to install Billski fork extensions and new brake lines.

So do you love them or what?  I think your bike looks badass with them on!!!  Congrats!!   

Love the looks of the bike with them on, just wish they were chrome so they are werent so noticable.

I agree.  I eventually gave up on trying to keep them scuff free. They scuff so easily.

Does anyone know if they can be chromed and not have the threads included in the chroming?

I'm no chromer, but I would assume the chrome would add a layer of thickness that would make them too large to fit through the trees.

Yeah, I took that as a given, what I was thinking is having them milled down the thickness the chrome would add and wondering if they could then be dipped so just the extensions minus the threads got chromed.

I would think milling them down would weaken them and even if you chrome over them to add thickness it's still not part of the original piece. There's no way I would do it.

Plating wouldnt really add a lot to the thicknes really maybe .006 at most and the extentions  I have are already .005 bigger in diameter than my forks are. If you turned .010 off the diameter and then had them chromed you would be fine. There is a place about an hour from me that does chroming and I think I will get in contact with them and see exactly what it would take to get these chromed

Low and mean does a fat fork cover for the Stryker, I email them and asked if they would be doing them for the Raider. He said as soon as they get a raider they would be doing more parts for it. I was thinking the fork covers would be perfect after the fork extensions are on.

Tell them to come visit me and do some measurements.  Hell, I'd even ride up to them if it meant getting some free custom parts.  We're in the same state afterall. Havasu would be a good ride.
