749 Powder Coating

  1. Kinda got inspired by this 749 project with powder coating
    Ducati 749 by Gustavo Penna | Bike EXIF

    My headlight housing had some pits around the lenses from the PO not washing salt residue off it then parking it in a nice, damp underground garage. Had everything apart to do full service and a mate owns a powder coating rig so...

  2. Looks great mate, that's exactly what I need to do to mine.

    What else are you going to do?

    I had my clutch plate done in yellow, looked pretty good cost a fiver from a local place.
     
  3. Did the stock clutch cover, rear sets (with Oberon peg knock offs and carbon heel plates in pic) rear bracket for plate under exhaust. Also did the side stand. Next winter will probably do the brake and shift levers. Might do them in Ducati red tho...

    Not too sure about the seat stitching tho. A mate does upholstery and offered to do a new cover for free (he owes me a few) because it has a cut in it from some a##hole in a parking lot. :punch: Hope the look grows on me. :confused:

  4. Final look with nose fairing on. I like the blacked out look much better than the silver. :upyeah:
