I didn't wana get everything done and then go, wait a minute that looks shite. Then have to strip the new paint and go down the shiney route.
But if you're going to do the swingarm the same colour as the frame then I'd also do the lower fork legs to even the bike out!

Tbh I didn't put much thought into it because I haven't go to price a powdercoat for it, I just got a price for it to be resprayed by a panel beater. Not sure if it's cheaper or not.
One question, if any of you guys wer doing it, would you go and do the Swingarm and forks aswel? What about the top yoke? Mine is a kinda crap flakey silvery colour and I wana clean it up aswel, colour of frame or shine?
Just looking for your own opinions if you had to do it to your own bike
