Here is the motor painted, obviously heh. Cause it is an aluminum case there is no primer that is made for it to stand this kind of heat. One way is powder-coding the motor, but to me it is to messy and risky process for the "heart" of the bike so I bought a paint that is made for fireplaces that has a head-resistance up to 650°c ..or 1200 f, and made sure to remove all the oil and fat of the surface before applying it.
