Thanks.....Now all ya need to do is get rid of the gay ass mufflers, hee hee
Good Job Bro..
Yeah, the gay-ass bazooka canisters will have to do for a while, thanks to cashflow issues... playing Santa for 7 children during Xmas time will do that to a man...

Sounds like a question for Vic....
That`s your tread, I`m sorry if it looks like I`m trying to steer some business my way. I`m not, no really.

No, no, my brutha, it's all cool. I was just sharing my powder-coating outcome... I am certainly not looking to powder-coat anyone else's stuff!That`s your tread, I`m sorry if it looks like I`m trying to steer some business my way. I`m not, no really.

I've had a few PM's asking what the specific powder is, since it appears to match the frame quite well. I don't normally care for Harbor Freight items, but that's where he got this particular powder.
It is Harbor Freight p/n 93306-2VGA, and is simply called "Matte Black". Link to the powder

War!
The more I look at the coating job, the more I think that's the way they should have come from the factory! That looks absolutely perfect with the fastest color.

Lycan, I'd recommend contacting Vic, he's done quite a bit and has everything ready to knock-out a simply job like this easily. I used to, but pretty much laid myself off from coating the last few months.
War, I used that same powder on a friends GSXR 1k and 600, and CBR's 1k and 600, very good match indeed. You can get a little closer to perfect with a pinch or two of wrinkle matte from other vendors, but its only to the discriminating eye.
