Hi Grant just a little reply for you
I was looking at doing this as you might recall but after long discussions with spray painters and powder coaters the cost wasnt all that expensive the painting of the frame in satin 2 pack was going to be around $150.00 that was if i supplied them just the frame a lot more if they had to strip the bike the bad side to all this is if you ever want to sell your pride and joy you will lose money painting the frame or polishing it the bike yards will take of $1000s because they all say the same thing if it has been polished or painted it has been crashed even if it hasnt and the resale value isnt there
so i guess the final decission is upto the owner of the bike
hope I have helped Regards Bill
