Removing foot peg brackets

[golfman]

Even though the shop put plugs in all the screw holes, my son had to go through and re-tap everything. I used a drillbit to ream out the holes for the peg pins until I realized I was taking a little too much aluminum with along with the powdercoat. My son found a perfect little dremel bit and he patiently ground away just enough powdercoat to allow the peg pins to fit. I think the ones he did are tighter than stock!

I am going to take off the pipe today and paint all the brackets and the tip black as well. I will be using 1200 degree paint of course.

Wow! Those peg mounts look fantastic! Much nicer in black. I think you made the right call ingoing flat black as well. Congratulations dude. You did well!! :clap:

Now I need to get the ignition cover painted glossy black along with the front rims. the back rim will be last. I will, of course paint the shock springs as I do each rim. this should leave me with a "symphony of black" on my bike.

Thanks, I am thinking about buying the upgrade wheels, but they are not all black. I could paint them but I am not sure how it would look.

That is not the rim I was thinking of.....but now that I have seen it up close it is far more attractive than I origionally thought. I didn't know the spokes had those half circles midway....
