Decided black spokes aren’t worth the bother, I just won’t clean them so they will look black anyway ;D
Took the frame, wheel rims and hubs, seatpan, a load of rear brake hits, engine mount brackets, wheel brace, fork lowers, steering stem, triple tree, swing arm, battery box and loads of other misc bits to the powder coaters today. He said even though the chrome bits will be a pig he will do it all for £220. Well happy with that, especially as he is 5 minutes down the road from me.
Was looking through the boxes of bits I have and it’s been so long since I stripped the old girl down I don’t recognise half of it, at least I sandwich bagged most of it and vaguely labelled it up.
Looking forward for it to start resembling a motorbike again. Trying to avoid buying an old enduro bike that’s cropped up local as I don’t need one, it will eat up my spare time and cash.. but it would be a right laugh!

If your powder over chrome, the paint will peel off in time. They need to be de chromed first.
