I did something similar with my 748 heel guards and exhaust shield about 5 years ago.  I bought the necessary materials from www.fiberglast.com for about $100. 

Came out ok, didnt use a vacuum bag but it still looked very cool.

On a side note, I just sent off my passenger rearset brackets to get this treatment - I can't wait to see the result.

I'd like to see it too. The photos on your website are a little too small to be useful.

I'd like to see a SSS done with this.

Yes, that would look great, and could definitely be done!

Who will be the first to sign one up?? If I still had my S4R, I would do it.

Would be worth it to do the first one at cost for the photo op/review.  Too bad I dont have an s4r.

No you don't, but those 3 spoke wheels would look great with a carbon coating.

Im down to two Cromos......the 748 is long gone....

[BellissiMoto]

I do love those cromos, I actually voted for the dealer who plastic chromed the tank and tail of their entry in the new Monster Challenge just because of cool, unique and different it was.

Also

This would be a great way to make the new cast subframe from the 696 and 1100 monsters look better too...

It looks cool and all but that price is ridiculous.  3K to coat a frame?  1.5K for a swing arm? 1K for a sub frame and 900 for wheels?

At those prices you could trick your bike out in titanium and magnesium increasing the performance of the bike significantly AND save money.

If one of my friends was even considering 4K on coloring the frame and swingarm I'd fulfill my duty as a friend and kick him in the ass.

There, I fixed it for you

Trust me, I agree the costs are quite expensive, and I am truly trying my best to cut those down by getting a PROTEC Studio here in the US, but that is still quite far off timewise...

The thing we have to remember is, many people have more money then us, and would love to customize a bike in this fashion. All I am doing is making it available to them.

[Mojo S2R]

Let us know when you get your own PROTEC Studio.  Though I think I would like to do my swingarm I am not willing to pay 1.5K$.  I'll stick with powdercoating for 50-100$.

It's not a question of affordability it's a question of value IMO.

Crazy would be spending more to coat the subframe than it would cost to install a Ti one.  Or spending more money on coating wheels than buying Marchesini Magnesium wheels (my next purchase)

If the costs were more in line, up to 4x or 5x the cost of powdercoating, I'd be interested.

But hey to each their own.

On a side note congrats on expanding your product line.  I wish your new venture success in the coming year.

I had my S2R swing arm Powder Coated red, to match the frame, I bought a swingarm so now I have a spare... (shameless plug) for sale... or for borrow... I'd be willing to get it sent there to see... if there was a buyer... I paid 650usd for it and would like recoupe at least $500....

Value is measured in more terms than mere performance.

Look at OCC Choppers, or drive through the hood and look at the 1986 Cutlass worth 150$ with 6,000$ 28" rims, jacked up, and painted for some odd reason like a Sprite can, even though they aren't paid advertisements...

As for me personally, I do see value in the service, and I could see myself having items like a Frame, Subframe, Front fairing stay, Wheels, and Swingarm done in such a fashion (that is of course, when I could afford it, and it would not be my first priority, as I am not super well off).
