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.

Nice!
I am so jealous of you guys with your fancy-dancy powder coated frames!

Keep the pics flowing!

Joe, if you don't mind, who did the coating and how much?

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.

Someone on old skool commented that the front discs are on wrong? R & L

 

[Billy Ricks]

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.

ahh thanks Billy..

It's an easy mistake to make. I had to look very close to find the markings when I had the GSXR rotors on my bike.
