Are there any vintage CB family friends who do powder coating in Los Angeles, or does anyone have any recommendations that do good work for a fair price?

Awesome Ill check them out!  All these shops (including Racetech) that are only open banking hours, or shorter, and closed on the weekends... It makes it really hard to get to.  I can only "go to the dentist" so many times during the work week ;D

I hear you! I've been waiting to go to the coater so I can match a specific wrinkle texture for a part on my Triumph, but their business hours are tricky.

Pulled my front caliper apart, what do you guys think about the condition of my piston? runable?




I also finally got to the brakes of my S1000rr.. it turned out that the rubber 'plunger thing' (for lack of a better explanation) had turned itself halfway inside out in the MC.. I fixed that then bled both brakes and the MC and now the lever feel is much better.  "harder than wedding dick" as my grandfather would say.



Back in one piece!

Assuming you need a replacement you might also consider a phenolic piston that will not rust or corrode (and is lighter).

I bought a Gixxer front end but ended up not wanting to use it and to keep the factory look instead.  I bought new TNK fork tubes, springs and gold valve emulators from Racetech and called it a day.

I'm having a brain lapse.  I thought you were going to run the modern front on this bike with modern brakes.

I bought a Gixxer front end but ended up not wanting to use it and to keep the factory look instead.  I bought new TNK fork tubes, springs and gold valve emulators from Racetech and called it a day.

Sorry, I missed that detail!

No worries, I made that decision when I thought I was only going to spend a few grand on a "refresh" on this project lol what was I thinking.  I also want to retain the look of the stock front end, there is something I like about the classic look.  I might upgrade in the future, or do an inverted front on the next project =)

Check out Etak-Nivek Blac when your ready to upgrade. I just purchased front forks from them. Classic,Ceriani looks with modern internals rebound dampening and preload adjustment. Kevin is an awesome dude.

That looks awesome! I will be sure to keep track of that. Let me know how they work out for you!

Will do brother!
I found NOS 38mm Ceriani lowers and Kevin at E-N used his tubes and internals. His reproductions though are awesome.
