M8 Makeover(worlds first brown sled?, it`s not, but still special)

[Daltech]

it doesn't look like much savings over stock can

Yeah, I`m not saving wheigt here, but my ears. I run whit Jaws twin pipes, and just has the stinger silencer, and they are loud. The trail silencer should bring the sound level down i hope.
It`s not light, but it is lighter then a stock can. But whit two pipes, I think the wheight now are the same as whit the stock setup. But there`s alooot more power

Looks really nice!

What's a wrecked M8 worth in Norway anyway? A whole lot more than they are here, Im sure.

It depends alot on how much damage there is. But this one I was lucky and got really cheap. Just around 2000$. 3-5k would be a more normal price for a wrecked one. Remember,a new one cost you over 25 000$ over here.

Got a pic from the paint shop, hoods painted.
Just minor things left on the to do list now.

 

[Daltech]

Starts go get together now. Should have the engine in at Tuesday if all goes according to plan. Then maybe fire her at wedensday.

WOW! finally, a sled that i might like a bit more then the one i did...killer paint sheme

but please, the white bumper has to go...please

 

[Daltech]

I have a black bumper also. So I have an option if I need. Just have wait until I get stickers on it, before I can deside which one to use.

the white looks sick.. yes it will get dirty but who cares if you have a black back up.. stick with what you got and gas and go

any plans for the HCR? she sure is puuurtttyyy

 

[Daltech]

Thanks. I also like the white bumper, so I think it will stay.

The HCR has already some snack on it. SLP PP, SLP singel pipe, Powercommander5, gaugelifter, Koso AF, Ice age rails. So I think it will stay like this for the season.
Thinking of powdercoating the frame and tunnel black on it during the summer.

 

[Daltech]

Seat is done today. Mount her on later.

 

[Scott]

Looking GREAT!!!!

I sorta like the white...but I'd like to see what it looks like in black also.

 

[Daltech]

I`m leaning towards the white one. So will see if I even will try the black one.
Mounted the seat today, and started reasembling the engine.

[Daltech]
