Title: painted my sled.
Post by: Merc09 on February 26, 2013, 02:19:18 AM
So I got bored the other night so I took my sled apart and painted it its not finished but for a quick garage job its not too bad. What do you guys think? I'm thinking about putting that old Vietnam bomber shark face on it. I think that design would fit the body shape nicely. Here's before and after and ill post more updates as the painting goes on.

I need some ideas on what to paint the little stuff. Like the shocks and skis the dash and other parts like that. I'm happy to hear peoples thought and suggestions.

Stealthy!   I would say either leave like it is or yellow is a good accent color.    Nice sled!

Thanks! For it being 25 years old it runs great! And only has 1700 miles on it. It's an 88 yamaha xlv 540. The p.o. put the track on backwards but I haven't had time to flip it around yet but its still super fast!

I even have a couple "remove before flight" safety tags that are on the bombers. I think I'm going to figure out a way to incorporate those on the sled as well. This is going to look sick when its done!
