    New on here,
    but not to biking (all my life)
    now well over the hill, but enjoying the views
    been a road racing fan all my life
    attended the last 56 TT's, wonderfull
    unfortunately cancelled this year
    have a few bikes, 1962 BSA 650 twin (owned from new)
    ride a Honda CBF 1000 (for touring)
    renovating a Rickman road version Metisse T120 unit engine
    almost ready to ride after 45 years unused,
    Also potter around on a Chinese 125
    (cannot be used if raining) it dissolves like an Alkaseltzer tablet
    could do with some help,
    I am looking for a recommended plater's,
    to re-nickel plate the Rickman frame,
    Anyone know a good company ?
    thanks
