hey guys'
Im thinking of powder coating my frame black satin while im building up my naked bike. anyone have a pic of a vtr with the front fairing removed with a black satin or matt frame?

just interested to see what it would look like...

 

Mine is painted with spray on bedliner. Mine will not be naked but here's a pic

 

A search for 'black frame' will bring up quite a few posts/threads inc. pics.

 

VTS has a very nice example....

sold! i'm definately doing mine black! thanks guys. nice bikes...

 

Wayne, what kind of spray on bed liner did you use? Did it come out smooth like paint or kind of rough like a popcorn ceiling?

 

I've seen that stuff have trouble with being so close to heat before. I thought it was really cool and looked into it... it seemed to work for some people but be a real issue with others...

 

It turned out textured like the black Yamaha frames. It's plastikote brand. You need to put down a self etching primer first. You can kinda see the texture here

 

7moore7 thanks for the advise. I think I'll try out some test spots to see how it handles the heat. Wayne thanks for the close up pictures. Still looks great. Textured was the word I was looking for earlier.
