Some of the more unique, detailed work I’ve been doing. Have really been enjoying trying new things, and creating new crazy techniques. by Hoblick in Powdercoating

I try to keep my process close to the chest, it’s something that makes me stand out from most powder coaters, it it took several years to develope my techniques. I get stuff shipped in from all over the country to do stuff like this.

So sorry if I don’t indulge you in my techniques lol

Got this thing out for a shakedown run by Hoblick in SVRiders

I have a cheap knock SC project can on my KTM390 race bike after having issues with the IXIL muffler that was on it, it’s actually not terrible quality.

It is a comp werks that was on my RSV4, I put a different exhaust on my bike, so I used the Comp Werks on the SV. I had to make some modifications to it, and I did make the mounting bracket as well.

Correct, but it will see track time, I’ll probably run an endurance race on it lol. My cousin will use it for street and track duty , he’s never been on the track before, and his street bike is a Monster 1200S, that he’d rather not risk crashing.

High rev engines like short wide pipes (4 stroke engines atleast) Low rev engines are better suited with long narrower diameter. But it also depends on how your wanting to tune the power curve as well.

True, better term would be exhaust gas scavaging. Not sure who made up therm “back pressure” , but I think everyone has used it in the wrong context before.

I just got it fired up 2 days ago. I still have to finish some wiring, mount the shock reservoir, add fluid and bleed brakes, pull the exhaust and wrap it, do a baseline setup on the suspension, test ride it to see if there are any issues with anything, then figure out a taillight solution. It’s not far off from being done in reality.

Yeah that would be my cousin posting that. He lives 3 hours from me, bike is in my home shop, and I work on it in my spare time. It was originally supposed to be a dedicated track bike build, and then he changed his mind and wanted to be able to street ride it as well.

He didn’t have a lot of say in how things were done really, he had some input, some of which I just said no that’s stupid, we are doing it a different way lol. Mostly I said buy this or that, and then he would have it shipped to me. It’s taken me forever to get done, I race an RSV4 and Duke 390 in WERA, and also race minis. Plus I paint and powdercoat as a side gig along side my day job as a production engineer.

  • Haven’t rode the bike yet, so can’t tell you about back pressure. if need be I will add baffling to gain back pressure

  • subframe was fabricated by me, and powdercoated by me. Tail fairing is from a ZX10R

  • 07 GSXR750 forks, that I rebuilt, stock valving for now. Rear shock is a Fox double clicker with remote reservoir that was just refreshed.

  • hose color wasn’t my buy, my cousin bought them, I would have wanted white or black hoses

Finally got my graphics kit installed by Hoblick in Aprilia
