I am going to putting a ez rocker kit on my rocker this winter and I want to black out as many parts as possible while doing this. I thought that I would powder coat the struts and maybe the lower fender ? any pros or cons I thought that p/c would be more durable for these parts. Also any other parts that can reasonably unbolted ? Are the front fork shocks a easy unbolt ? Any ideas or help
Thanks

 

Hey Bronco, I've got quite a few parts powder coated and I think that's a good way to go, especially if you're just doing black. My struts are p/c'ed semi gloss black and my rear fender is p/c'ed gloss black.

It's not a simple bolt on/off to get the lower fork legs off - you have to completely disassemble the forks. It's not a hard job, just a lot of steps involved. If you were going to take the time to take the forks apart, I would also recommend doing the triple trees at the same time.

Most of the black parts on my bike have been powder coated. Good luck with your project.

 

spray paint works good too
