At my full time job we do powder coating.

What do you have that you need done?

I may be able to hook you up, if you'll pay shipping both ways.

Ghoul did it... and did good work... Then fell off the face of the earth...

Right now I just want my levers, bar clamp, shift shaft arm for sure... Haven't fully decided if I want to piss around with my pegs, foot controls, and heal guards... and I'm really undecided about my engine covers (not sure if I really want to mess with tearing it down like that just yet...

i've got a guy down here that has done all of my parts. He does a great job and his prices are reasonable....

some of the engine casings, you'll literally have to drop the motor to be able to get to the fasteners...

I had my footpegs and heel guards powdercoated and they came out great

Ok... so the guy on my local board just quoted me at $40 for both hand levers, both foot levers, both pegs, both healguards, handlebar clamp, and my engine covers in two different colors.

Seems ridiculously cheap... I'm amped.

I kinda figured... a friend in AK could do small stuff he just bought an extra kitchen oven and put it in his garage... I imagine that's what your guy is using... good shit!

That's exactly it...

I'll tell you... Next place I live... will have a 2 car garage with an additional oven out there so I can get into this... From what I've been reading, it's mad retard easy to do!

and you can make some nice track day $$$ doing it! he powdercoated EVERYTHING.. he'd do a set of wheels for like $50... and it'd cost him less than $5 for the stuff... he'd pocket a good 200 a month... EASY... that's less than a weekend of work

It is, someone in my office can do really tiny stuff in a toaster oven... It's so simple a caveman could do it.
