Author Message   Capital_g Posted on Thursday, July 02, 2009 - 07:52 pm:        Soon I will be changing out the stock swingarm on my X1 for one with a "custom" finish. I think I want to go with a brushed aluminum look or smooth silver powdercoat. Anybody have a picture of something similar? I don't want to polish it because then it wouldn't match the rest of the bike... BTW- What is the finish on the front fork tubes? Anyone know?   Capital_g Posted on Friday, July 03, 2009 - 06:22 pm:        Anyone want to take a stab at it?   Shadowracerx1 Posted on Friday, July 03, 2009 - 06:26 pm:        If you powdercoat the mounting block, avoid coating where it mates to the engine to avoid grounding issues.   Capital_g Posted on Friday, July 03, 2009 - 06:57 pm:        Thanks Shadow- that is a good tip. Also considering anodizing, I think that might be a good match for the fork tubes. Anyone here use Grand Stand Designs (BadWeb Sponsor)?   Limitedx1 Posted on Monday, July 06, 2009 - 07:15 am:        i have an extra swingarm for sale!!!!
