For some reason most auto paint shops in the Phoenix metro area don’t want to mess with bikes. I did find one that would do it, single color for $1000.
I had my XS2 painted at Marble Motors in Texas. The XS2 paint job is complicated, they stripped it to bare metal, filled a couple shallow dents, primed , sanded, base coat of a white/silver metallic and red Candy that has to be applied in layers until the right color is achieved ( kind of an art ) and then multiple clear coats. It cost $1300 just for the paint job, I also paid for the tank to be professionally lined by a third part that specializes in that and I had to pay for well boxed and insured shipping both ways $75 times two.
All in $1500
I know a lot of guys don’t like to talk about what they paid. I think they feel a little embarrassed that they spent so much. But I was like you looking for answers once and didn’t get any.
I ponied up for a very specific correct look. Never have done it before, probably won’t again. This bike is a bucket list thing for me.
I did get lucky years ago and got a BMW painted by a local , absolutely beautiful for $500.
You’re just going to have to look around your area. Best bet , I think , would be an independently owned auto body shop.
My two cents.
