I had thought about powder coating, along with anodizing the can bodies, but I might keep a little bit of silver... The plate is a plastic one from Hyde Racing. I don't plan on slamming it into any rocks or logs, just wanted to keep flying gravel and such off of the frame and case.
I think the black wheels look sweet...did you tape every spoke and then spray the plasti-dip? Any advise for me on your experience taping them would be great so I don't start from scratch. Anybody think it would look bad to dip both the rims and spokes?
To do the rims right, you un-lace them and get them powder coated. I don't know how plasti-dip would look, you'd have to touch it up after tire changes too.
Ya I was wondering if you used the PLASTI DIP GLOSSIFIER as well For the last coat? Also did you use regular black or flat black?? Thanx!!
I used whatever was on the shelf at Lowes, which I believe was flat black. I did a very light final coat to get a more matte look, but it's worn more shiny over the last couple years. The only original plasti-dip on it right now is the rear fender, and it's starting to look like it's time to re-spray or do something else. I threw some vinyl camo on the headlight and number plates, and replaced the front fender when it cracked. It's plasti-dipped too, but I didn't clean it as well as I should have beforehand and it's bubbled a bit.
TELL US MORE ABOUT THESE WHEELS! WHAT IS THE BENEFIT OF THE 5.5in WHEEL SIZE? THEY LOOK GREAT REGARDLESS!
Ahh ok, the 630 light is much better than the 610 light, but it's far from good. I added 4000 lumens of LEDs in the sidepods tied into the high beam circuit with a relay.
it has way more possibilites than the 610 from what i been reading and it also looks better i been searching for a better headlight but am very picky with aesthetics. I was looking for a thread of someone switching a 610 headlight to a 630 i've heard it has been done but cant find some sort of sample or guide.
First off, SICK BIKE!!! I was wondering how you got a RED Husky 'H' on your engine cover ? DIY project or product u purchased?
