    Project 1100 Bandit/Gsxr conv



    Decided with the time lapse on this build and the fact that it basically starting from a the frame up I would continue it here in the project section.

    Got the frame back today from the powder coater. Went with what is called cardinal black with a 20% gloss sheen, almost a satin finish.

        Billy,

        Accent Powder Coating in Austin, I bundled it with my four truck wheels, but I believe the price on the frame was $200.00.

          Thanks Joe, I've bookmarked their website for the future.

                      That does look great Joe. One of these days I'll get around to a complete facelift on my bike.

                              He's right, the wiper grooves are the give away. You got right on the left and left on the right. If you look closely you'll see ON L and ON R stamped into the discs. The stamping is around one of the slide pins that attaches the disc to the carrier.
