Default Powdercoating over powdercoat or unknown material.

I would like to find the answer to my particular situation. Parts on motorcycles, ATV, etc such as handlebar clamp, throttle housing, and clutch perches are coated from the factory. What they use is unknown to me. It is usually black in color. Well I powder coated a piece stripping all of the coating and then cleaned and recoated and everything went fine. I also tried and coated a piece without removing the original material. I cleaned it and prepped it with the iron phosphate primer. It worked well also. This original material is difficult to remove. I need to know if it is ok to do as I did by just coating over the original? Any advice would be appreciated. I would like to do a swing arm on my ATV.
