Booked into the garage next week for a service, going to fit it all at the same time so I can check the fuelling is correct with new air filter / exhaust combo.

Can't wait to hear / see it.

Also popped to a local shot blasting / powder coating company to find out how much it will be to blast and coat my rear subframe, heel guards, rear peg holders etc.

Has anyone had this done? Do you remember roughly what it cost?

Take it easy

Re: New Bits!
 

from a local company my rear sub was done for around 40 quid. make sure they look after your holes and threads correctly or it'll be a bum to refit.

Edit....maybe a little more, as I had two rear subs done and I think the front too.

Re: New Bits!
 

no idea costs but kendal mint cake :) could just do for some now :)

Re: New Bits!
 

Nice once, cheers. Is there anything in particular I need to do to the holes and threads before I give it to them? Or just check that they are gonna block them off?

Re: New Bits!
 

A nice added surprise when ordering an exhaust!

Re: New Bits!
 

block the holes with the threads you want to protect, to remind them to do it properly, or you have to mess up the powdercoat trying to sort them out. I think they filled mine with some sort of rubbery things and they just pulled straight out. Its been a few years since.

If anybody is interested, a local company 'Swifco' said as an estimate that the rear sub frame would be £40.00, the rear peg hangers and heel guards (not sure if thats the correct term) woud be £15.00 per side. The fork yokes would be £10.00 each and the outer fork tubes would be £20.00 per side. The wheels would be £45-60 each dependent on how easy they are to shot blast, and if I wanted the finish lacquered or not. And they aim for a 72hr turn around.

My local powder coating place did

They filled all the threaded holes with something (dont Know what though)

Hey dirtydog, where did you go, can you post their website? Cheers.

I would do but they're a proper old school place and don't have a website!
