Frame restoration - Powder Coat or Stove Enamel ?

#1 PostAuthor: Z900 Freddie » Fri May 04, 2012 7:34 am

Whilst restoring my z900 i need to get the frame sorted - I'm lookin for advice on what's best - Powder coating it or have it stove enamelled.

Also does anyone know anywhere in lancs that do frame checking (ie, for straightness)

Thanks

Powder coat

I know a lot of people don’t agree with powder coat on this forum but I have had many of my bike frames powder coated in the past Guzzi le mans, Norton Commando, Triumph and my z1b all at Triple S at Bingley and the results have been superb they only do motorcycle parts not garden furniture like some powder coaters link below.
