    Can anybody fill me in on what the belt tensioner wheel is made of? It feels like hard anodized alloy. The reason I'm asking is I wondered if you could highlight the edge by taking it off and working it on progressively finer abrasive (sandpaper) on a flat surface like glass or the garage floor. Thanks for any information and especially for any pics!!!

    That thread that i linked is a good thread when i was searching to buy my buell i remember looking at that thread he does amazingly clean work to bikes, i wish i could keep the small details that clean it looks like the bikes are never ridden.
