Ceramic coating

Sesman:
Perfect, thanks both.

Oddjob:
Some more parts. Decided to try the powder coating service they offered and was very pleased with the results. Not pictured the seat pan until I've fitted all the rubbers back on etc.

Some more ceramic coating, seat lock and brake splitter done in Satin Black. Speedo done in ALK. Experimented with some tacho dishes done in Satin Black as well, not the best of finishes TBH but it should be far more resistant to scratches than normal spray paint.



And some gloss black powder coating.



Laverdaroo:
Minjt! Not bad are they mate, top contact that, well done bud ;)

Matt_Harrington:
Nice job. I love picking up powder coated parts - they go in looking like cr*p and come out like new (most of the time!!)

Oddjob:
Just noticed that the seat lock doesn't actually fit the frame bracket without it distorting, the holes for the screws don't line up properly, it may explain why you see pics of seat locks sitting a odd angles. The front screw sits perfectly, this allows the locating stub on the frame bracket to sit into the hole in the seat lock so it locates in the right place. However when it does that and you tighten the front screw up, the back end of the lock lifts away from the bracket, at first I thought it was the powder coating maybe being too thick but it doesn't feel that thick and it wouldn't allow for the holes being misaligned as well. I may have to alter the bracket to allow the seat lock to sit flat, if I do that I'd need to have the bracket redone after the modding. Bit of a bummer. I also started to put parts back together and have now found that I'm missing 2 of the rubbers for the battery case, 83618-323-000, the ones the battery sits on so it's not shaken too much. Anyone got any spare?
