What Should a Motorcycle Paint Job Cost?

Just re-read, its a cruiser, 300 with a decent paint and clear used. if its in good shape might even talk em into cutting and buffing for 300.

No real body damage but a minor dent in the tank. I'll fix and prep it myself. Thanks for the input!

One of the problems is getting the color, if the shop has their own system where they can mix up as much, or in your case as little as needed that helps a lot. I have to buy by the quart which is way more than I would need, clear is fine since it's generic. If you pull the parts and do the prep as xlexl said there's not much to it, in fact why don't you spray it yourself?

I did my old dragbike myself. It turned out OK, but had lots of orange peel. I'm really not set up for a pro paint job. Too dang dusty out here plus the temp has been varying by 40+ degrees from day to night. Thanks for the input Rob and it's good to hear from ya!

300 is what i was gonna say. I bought a whole tin set for my wideglide with fresh paint for 550.

Thanks DD! it's good to know that prices haven't gone hog wild.
