k5, swingarm painted?

<< < (2/2)

cbmoor:
I just took all the paint off mine. Got it sandblasted then bead blasted and rubbed it down with a kitchen scourer using autosol and it came up really amazing. That way do not have to worry if the paint chips off, did the same with the subframe as well

kwakman:
im polishing cases as we speak and scouring pads plus autosol sounds like a bloody good idea to me.nice one. :-D

Hman636:
found a local guy to powder coat the swing arm for 30 bucks. i didnt think it was a bad price?

bike_boy_england:
i think that is a very good price. i paid ?130 for frame, swingarm, sub frame, footrest mounts and shock spring. the company who did it are helping out with a VERY interresting project. the restoration of bluebird, the jet boat that campbell crashed on lake coniston. if anyone is interrested aswell can check it out at thebluebirdproject.com !
