zazoo Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 Hi all. Thinking about getting the frame powder coated. A couple of questions before I do. Firstly colour? Stick with the blue or go white? There is a frame lock stop missing, so do I chop the other one off or weld on the missing one? Footrests, do I weld on new brackets, for modern footrests, or will modern types fit on existing brackets? Any thoughts on this very welcome, cheers.

model80 Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 (edited) New steering stop, otherwise you'll be denting and scraping your newly painted tank Blue or White, it's all down to originality or not. Me, I would go blue. It's your bike and it's up to you entirely. Footrests, get new brackets welded on ,as the existing one's won't accommodate modern footrests. There are a number of modern footrests available from the usual suppliers, https://www.inmotiontrials.com/product/alloy-universal-footrest-kit-with-weld-on-brackets/ https://www.inmotiontrials.com/product/universal-footrest-kit-with-weld-on-brackets/ Edited April 23, 2019 by model80 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sherpa325 Posted April 24, 2019 Report Share Posted April 24, 2019 A friend dropped his bike with a missing steering stop. He damaged the outside of the tank where the tripple clamp hit it but worse still he holed the inside of the tank where it was forced onto the coil. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
