So this is a technique that iam not very keen on but i guess in cases of emergency like this you could give it a go
I am currently restoring/modding my Yamaha R1-Z 250 , this stroker has 2 aluminium plates that bolt on the frame where the swingarm mounts
Mine were in a very bad condition
So except of spraying and polishinf these would need to be welded too
So in this case i decided that carbon wrapping was the way to go
First sprayed them black with a simple spray can
Then i cut one layer of carbon fibre a little bigger than the plates
Then i carefully folded them in the back of the plates and taped them to gether
One coat of clear resin got me here
After some dremeling sanding and 2 coats of clear laquer got me these ( i used a mat laquer , i thing i would have better results with a gloss clear coat )
And finally on to the R1-Z
