For those who have the 1320 header installed, have you noticed a substantial decline in gas mileage? I am still running stock exhaust and prior to changing the header I was averaging around 27 mpg.....now I am only seeing around 20.

Yeah, I had short shift in my old mustang and it can’t be beat. I was just concerned that I didn’t grease it enough and that’s why it’s louder, but think it’s just by design.

For those who have installed the short throw shifter, did you notice the shifter being louder through the gears after installation? I haven't taken it out on the road yet due to weather, but just noticed it sounded louder than stock when shifting through the gears sitting in the garage with the engine off. I greased everything, but wanted opinions before I tear it apart to add more grease.

clutch switch signalData erratic or intermittent
Thanks, I finally found it in the service manual. Anyone have an issue with this?

I took the Slingshot out for a little ride tonight....it was chilly, but a great ride....anyway, while I was on my way home my check engine light came on. Took a picture of what the code displayed....anyone have any ideas?

Power: 200 Watt RMS
Woofer Size: 10"
Response: 75-150 Hz
Size: 13.60" L x 9.60" W x 2.60" HThe Kenwood I'm running is the KSC-SW11. It is 150 watt 8.25"x5.125 sub. It is 7.5"L x 11"W x 2.75"H. I think the problem you would have with the Cerwin Vega is because of the length, it will be too high at the rear side of the seat.

whoops attached pic
What are the dimensions on that unit? I only found 2 that will actually fit under the seats...a Pioneer and a Kenwood. I went with the Kenwood unit, but I may get rid of it and sacrifice a storage compartment. Also, there is a guy making a harness that will provide RCAs for amps and you won't have to screw with the factory harness. I can get the information if you need it.

I use a DJI Spark and love it. It has all the features you would need for doing amateur video/pics. Only down side is it doesn't have a 3 axis gimbal, but for me it is more than adequate.

I went with the Kenwood KSc-11
It’s not earth shattering bass, but sounds good enough for me. Grabbed it off Walmart.com for like $140 and fits perfectly under the seat.
Check out my setup....Audio Upgrade

@frehleycomet I am running the same fuse block on my Slingshot for all my lighting. I have 3 zones of lighting that I am running through it. Since I have no intention on using the other 3 circuits on the fuse block, I am using a switch to power my whole fuse block. I basically ran the yellow ignition wire to a switch, which I tied into a constant power source. I wanted the ability to power up all my lighting without the Slingshot being on. I also wanted to power down my controllers when they are not being used.

No need to drill... in fact, you’re better off not drilling as there’s plenty room to slide the wire to the battery. If your sitting in the drivers seat, run the wire down the left frame tube out underneath the rear of the sling. You can’t miss the exit out as the opening is about 1/4” wide.
In the photo: the black wire (which is 4AWG thick) slides right through the opening with ease... follow THAT tube.
I hope you have that distribution block wrapped with something?!
-
There is a hole that the wiring for the seat comes through that you can use, or just drill a hole. You’ll never see it anyways.

Welcome I am also a new owner of a slingshot and have loved every minute of it, I live on the South East side of Chicago on the Indiana border. I have a 2018 SLR LE and have just started to personalize it. I hope to meet up with some of you guys and go for a cruise, I recently met Scott from facebook page, He drove out to Gina's in Monee for their customer appreciation day and bike/Sling show and we went for a ride in his Supercharged Sling, "WHAT A RUSH".
Where exactly are you located? We ride over here in Indiana as often as possible.
-
I’m in NW Indiana and we have a great group of guys that ride often here. Orlando’s not too far away, you’ll have to come out sometime.

@D.W.Slusher What if there is no way of knowing the rating since this set was purchased through Amazon but shipped from China and if you have ever purchased anything from China you know that they rarely come with any paperwork
I would say to start with a low rated fuse and use the trial and error method then. Your goal is to just make sure you use a fuse that will blow if there is a problem to protect the circuit and not become a fire hazard. You’ll probably be fine with like a 2 amp fuse. If it’s too low of a rating it’ll blow immediately, then try a higher rating until it doesn’t blow .

Has anyone installed this
FZ-1 Accessory Fuse Block for the Polaris Slingshot
I am going to install underglow LED's but how do I know what fuse to use in the box for switched or constant 12vYou will have to base that off of the ratings of the LED kit you're installing.

Next in line...
What color? Rgb?I will have an answer tomorrow.
