Beemer Posted May 18, 2017 Share Posted May 18, 2017 Have you priced for a powder coat? I know it's more but I don't know how much more or if it's even worth it to you. Only you will know that. Beemer Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's more but I don't know how much more or if it's even worth it to you. Only you will know that. Yeah powder coat would have been nice but it's not in my budget. I want to get everything working good and looking good is the main thing. Let's face it this bike is not very valuable even in mint condition. But many some day it will 2015 FZ-07 2003 2014 GSXR 1000 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Global Moderator Guru Posted May 18, 2017 Global Moderator Share Posted May 18, 2017 It's incredible how fast you are working. People normally consider this to be a year project. And you are in it what? 10 days? And already in the process of building it up. You will be cruising the streets at the end of the month. Good job!

Global Moderator Guru Posted May 19, 2017 Global Moderator Share Posted May 19, 2017 I would powder coat, but that's just me. Even if it is more expensive. I restored a Land Cruiser more then 10 years ago and powder coated the frame. It has since always been outside and the frame is still mint.
