    250r frame powdercoat

    I was wondering if anyone knows of a powdercoater that has a color that is identical to the original honda red. I would like to get my 250r frame powdercoated instead of painted. Even though I will probally be $3500 in the hole when its done, I still intend to ride the crap out of it and powdercoat will hold up better. Any info will help

    Thanks Denn

    Willie gave me his frame and parts to get powder coated here in town and they did an outstanding job on it. I am not sure if its 100% honda but its pretty darn close. The good news is it didnt cost tons of cash to do all his stuff.

    86-87 Tecate ROCK!

    When I had mine powdered they had tons of color swatches to choose from. A good shop will have a bunch of brands he can use...

    How much did all that cost? Looks about equal to what I'm gonna have done to my 200x.

    I believe it was all under around 100$ for the entire lot of parts. Its been awhile so cant remember but wasnt bad at all.

    That's a smoking deal. Was it at a pro shop or somebody that does it on the side in their garage or what?
