Very nice frame, i love it when everything is clean and new looking like that, you could build the bike in the house without making any mess if the missis would let you, a friend of mine did with his gt750 kettle, right there in his front room. i built a DT400mx in my bedroom once in a rented house before i was married
My frame has also been powder coated and is sitting there waiting for me to get stuck in ,

It's great when you get all the stuff back from the powder coaters, I was a bit hesitant to even touch it never mind risk scratching it.
In the end I lowered the frame over the engine to avoid risking any accidents.
