Can you get high temp powder coating? I've seen engine casings powder coated and they get damn hot!

don't think so for exhausts, i know you can get ceramic coating, but at a cost, that the total value of my bike just does not warrant

Surely you Cain powder coat them? The engine casing get super warm, somebody will do it! Place in Renfrew called chameleon I think, plush the place G used.

You can get exhausts powder coated. Google 'exhaust powder coating'.
There are companies the do it. So surely any local place would do it.

Me likey! Very Happy
There's a few trick bits on that.
Underslung exhaust... You know I like them.
Bellypan finishes off the underneath nicely.
Are you thinking of different colours then? Or are you still going all black?
Powdercoated wheels look the muttz.. How about an XB12s front wheel and ZTL brake?

Hammerite high heat paint or BBQ paint doesn't need cured. Spray on cold, leave overnight. £8.49 in halfords.
