RE: how to battle proof your bike....
We have a Trailer Mfg here in Albany, I got them to do it for $250. It has a 5 year warrenty also, so if I drop it and it scratches they will respray it! LOL!!! Thanks for the compliments, I want to get the rims and swingarm powder coated gloss black and then it will be complete!
I like the ole "Mad Max of Thunderdome" look! It turns heads at the bike nights!

Take all the fairings off the bike that you wish to spray. Remove decals and sand every piece with some fine grit sandpaper. To remove all dust I wiped each piece with Laquer Thinner. You will then need to spray each piece with Appliance Epoxy, you know the stuff you paint the stove and frig with? This can be found at any Home Depot or ACE Hardware. make sure you let it dry for at least 20-30 mins. Longer if you do it when it's colder, like it is now... Get a proffesional to apply the liner! This is some nasty crap when it is in liquid form! The guy was in a full astronaut suit that sprayed mine, LOL... Make sure to plug all holes that you wish to use again, I put bolts in mine. This stuff will need to dry overnight before you handle it. It is a rubber substance so keep that inmind. After we sprayed mine I hung them up in a corner of the shop and tried to forget about them for the remainder of the day. make sure compound is completely dry before putting plastics back on your bike and whalla! Oh, it did add weight, about 6 oz. Then I took my flapper out so it's a wash! LOL!!!
