Honda-SOHC

Hi, I have had about 10 frames and many parts powder coated over time and always strip them down with nothing left on them, they get heavily shot blasted prior to coating but never had any threads damaged.you can put a bolt in but you should re tap the tread afterwards anyway.
I also fit headstock, swing arm bearings or whatever after coating, I would never have bearings put through the coating process as there's a lot of heat to bake the powder coat on, it might effect any sealed bearing grease etc.
Just blank off any holes and tell the coaters to watch there covered.
Thats what I do and never had a problem,  others may differ in there views.
Also there are good powder coaters and crap ones, get the opinion of someone who uses the one your proposing.
Regards keith

Managed to find some smaller files. I never built this bike but it was built very professionally using all the right parts.
Very noisy 838 cc, very noisy

Well, I don't know what to say.
I have bikes with clip ons... I can't ride these for too long
I have bikes that take ages to kick start.. They knacker me out.
I have a bike with American drag bars.the Colorado norton works. It goes with the billet forks...
I have a bike a 1924 norton with bars that are similar to 20s Harley's, swept back.. Very comfortable
Nothing like a wheelbarrow ',,,,,,as yet though

Now I'm restoring the Rickman it's back to clip ons again
