These pics show all of the powdercoating that I had done up until now. Keep in mind, I have exactly $50, yes, $50 in the powdercoating you see here. This stuff is REALLY TOUGH! I am thuroughly impressed with the work. I had it done by a business in Fowler, Indiana, about 20 minutes from The Badlands.

What do you think of the new hardware?

$50 is all it cost, and I am not friends with any of them, nor have I ever met any of them. I was really amazed, because the coating is so excellent in every way. It even matches the original red.

I have 2 set of plastics now, so I'll be able to put the old plastics on and run her through whatever is in the way. :-D

Looks like you have the inside of the bearing carrier area of the swingarm coated. How will you get the carrier back in there??

The shop is called Holesher Products. They fabricate steel and iron hoops, planters, and outdoor hanging stuff for plants and such. They also do all of their own powdercoating. They coat in the red you see above, as well as black and white. Other colors are available, but the man "Lee" told me it would cost a couple hundred to get other colors due to quantity of powder and he wouldn't be willing to do it unless he knew he could use it all up eventually. He would probably be willing to order a silver if enough interest was shown. He also has Caterpillar Yellow that he does stuff for Cat with, for any of you yellow kind of guys.

His name: "Lee"
His number: Have it at home, will post later today.
