I still haven't pulled the trigger on a new M8 just yet. I am very, very close with multiple options to chose from at this point. I know I am going to need a Boss seat and a SLP pipe.
I have to say I just love the look of the white Sno Pros and I want one very badly but, I thought I liked the telescoping VSB bars but, after riding with them and feeling all that slop in the steering post, I was thinking I might have to replace the steering post at some point? I also think I'd want to add the AMP 2" riser to the bars.
I like the weight loss of the Fox Floats but, do they work as well as the coil over shocks on the M8 standard? How often do you have to air them up? Do they leak down frequently?
So, if I bought a 09 M8 standard. I'm not a fan of green so I'd have to replace or paint the green coil over springs, paint the rear skid arms and remove the green decals from the black hood or try to find a white hood.
Then again, maybe someone would be willing to trade their sno pro hood for a black one?
I know the standard M8s are less expensive and weigh a bit more than the Sno Pros. What are your thoughts on the subject?
