    Powder coating frames ....... How much ?

    About how much should one expect to pay to have a 200S frame powder coated the stock black? Does that price include prepping (sandblasting it) it also?

    I've never heard of a frame being done that cheap.

    Send a pm to Quickonstep. He does powder coating.

    Wow! That's a good deal. How much do you charge for 250r frames?

    Really? I used to work at a powdercoating plant, and I didnt think frames were that expensive. Given it's been about 3 years, I thought I was somewhat close.

    Most of the prices I've found for something like a 250R frame is in the $250 range. I'll let Quick answer for himself. He beat every other price I've found by a good margin though.

    well.. for you guys on here.. and on org, im cuttin yall a big break... but thats just because this is a great place and alot of you guys get shafted by the dealer for parts, and im kinda giving some back to you guys..

    for any frame, (3 wheeler) i can do for 80 bux, with a 1 week turn around (7 days) yall pay the shipping, and SHIP IN A BOX!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! when you get the frame back, it will look just as it did when it rolled off the assembly line over in hong kong or wherever it came from... absolutly no difference, and will garentee the finish until you start building on it.. and will even go as far as sending pix before the peice is sent back out..

    I have some of dammits parts, and thats what we are doing right now, going back and forth with some colors, some different schemes, until there is somthing HE likes.. I dont mind working with people to get what THEY want for a GREAT price..

    This is what I got done locally about 6 weeks ago for $150...with blast.
    $80 is a good deal, if the shipping does not do you in.

    Your a good man! I thought I read that you didn't have the facilities though to do frames in another post?
    A great deal your offering for sure! I hope I can talk my freind into having his done. I'll get back to you.......might be a while though.
