I was going to try to paint it myself but I have no skill , experience or talent .

Don't let that stop you!

Think about it, you've never NOT done it yet.

Technically, you're undefeated.

Kamloops powder coating would do a frame in the 250$ range I would guess.

Well I didn't really do much to my motorcycle today but I did strap it down to my new lift to test it out...

Princess Auto carries lifts of a similar nature.  I've seen them on sale a few times a year around $400.  I have one and LOVE it.  Sure saves the back.

Where is a good place to get a sportster frame painted and what would it cost ?
If you are going Black consider POR15, it brushes on but the brush marks disappear and it's supposed to be as hard as the hobs of hell. I used it on my old MG loop frame.
