Katana Owners Club U.K.

I'm doing up a Honda PC50 and I needed to get some parts Zinc plated. Normally in Norfolk anything like this is a send it away job with the risk of loss of parts. A quick Google though found a place about 15 miles from me in Beccles called Electroplate (UK) but there website made it look like they were really for commercial customers. I called them anyway and asked if they would do the parts for a motorbike and they said bring them down and we'll price up.

I'm refurbing some carbs that came from Spondon Chris I think, via JohnR so thought I would get the steel parts zinc plated with a yellow passivate at the same time. Took them in at around 2pm on a Thursday afternoon and they were ready by 10am the next day! £40 for everything. A result in my book! It was worth asking.

First time I have got things zinc plated and very happy!

From to and the Honda bits just for reference.
As an aside (for Fossie) the PC50 number plate starts KMA so was originally from Manchester! Was last taxed in 1982.

A mate of mine got his Kat frame done that way. You can't tell the difference to nickel plating.
