    Whats the worst thing that could happen? You run your motor, blow it up, but at least it looks pretty.

    Im not just talking out of my butt. Either is Steve, Either is Mike. Between the three of us, Mike especially, we've done a significant amount of powdercoating work and all have experience with such equipment.

    sorry i chimed in assuming it was torn down to just cases. no seals. after all they do cure powder and high temp paint in an oven so i meant the cases would be fine if fully apart hope my vague answer wasn't misleading.

    As for sealing the motor off for blasting I put packing grease around the shafts and taped those off. I capped off the vent. The reason I didn't tear the motor down was because I am not sure of my skills to rebuild it. I work in a fabrication shop so metal work is no problem I have just never been inside of a bike motor......I think you guys have convinced me not to bake my motor. I am either going to use a uv light or wait and run it to cure the paint.

    Thanks for all your help.
