One other question now, do you recommend an angle grinder over an orbit sander or is either one fine. Keep in mind I will not be taking the bike completely apart but I will be removing things here and there to make the job easier.

i m not sure about your question (an angle grinder over an orbitsander)
those are 2 different animals used for different things . i don t know if you are trying to run a spiral sewn buff with an orbital sander or what
also 11000 rpm i don t know the size of wheel you are using but i think it s way too much.
here is the way i would do it , some will say i am wrong but it works for me for the last 15 years
get an electric variable speed polisher (similar to a dewalt 9 inch polisher)
put a 6 or 8 inch sewn buff on it (if your buffs are too narrow stack 2 of them to get at least 1 inch thick)
get a bar of compound . i use green bar ( i know its for stainless )
make sure parts are cean and dry
set the polisher to 1500 rpm and start polishing with moderate pressure
(make sure you have a good grip of the polisher because it has enough torque
to twist your wrist or nose if it bites on something)
as you go on adjust speed and pressure as needed.
now if you don t get results with this, either you are not doig it right or your parts are already at their maximum shine
fyi : if you are not sure about my way of doing go on my website and have a look
