I have my footpeg hangers off my 2011, going to powder coat them black but I have a few questions for those who have done this before:
1. Best easiest way to remove the silver paint?
2. Did you remove the rubber bushings from front brackets? If so, did they come out easy without damage?
3. Did you remove the steel pivot pins on the right brake bracket? If so, how?
4. Gloss black should look OK? I don't have access to matte black and my fairing is gloss black.
5. Did you powder coat the actual pegs or leave them silver? I'm planning on leaving silver.
6. Did you powder coat the large front hanger bolts that go through the rubber bushings? I want to leave silver.
I'm going to saw off the funky hooks from the rear before coating.
Does anyone have a spare left rear bracket for cheap? I'm going to cut off the exhaust hanger on the left cause I have a 4-1 exhaust but want to keep a spare with hanger in case I put Givi bags on someday. Thanks!!
