    Bob, you might want to google this in your area or ask local motorcycle shops. I have a place near me, so I just drive my parts to get my them vapor blasted.

      I know there is a place in Chicago (they were at MCACN) and also BEEMS Vapor Honing in Colorado Springs which specialize in classic car parts.
