Had anybody painted/powdercoated/etc your swingarm?

I keep looking at my S1W and thinking to myself that the swingarm is the weak link in the ultra white color scheme. (sorry, can't seem to get the damn picture to optimize)

Any suggestions? Or share pics of anything you've done.

Found an already optimized from before. Since this photo was taken, the side stand was also coated white.

The White Lightning's a great looking Buell as it is with the stock arm.

A polished X1 arm wouldn't look out of place. It would continue the theme through of polished engine casings.

Off topic but were any of the tuber sidestands white besides the S2. I did the updated side plate for my S2 and am getting my grey sidestand painted white.

Mine was extended 1" and braced.




The paint is the crappy H-D paint that comes off if you look at it wrong. It'll be re-done soon in a gloss black epoxy based paint.
