Hi everyone, new to the forum but not to Slingshot. I’m 67 years old and been riding bikes for 50 some years. Wife and I used to do the GoldWing thing, but she had hip replacement and I got tired of riding lone wolf. Tried cars {convertibles} but way to still and quite and just like, well, riding in a car. Test drove a Slingshot and loved it, way more elemental and raucous, like a bike! Wife loved it too, so we bought a 2018 SLR. This particular slingshot had constant intermittent starting problems even though we did all the prescribed fixes. Got fed up and sold it back to the dealer, then ordered a 2022 Slingshot R. Ordered in June and was told it wouldn't arrive till November.....sign of the times I suppose! I guess that's OK, it was 109 degrees here in Dallas today. Waiting patiently for November. Sorry this was so long winded. But to make it even worse (LOL) I do have one question, the PSS 18 had the GM ECOTEC engine, a well known and tested platform. Does anyone know about the longevity and reliability of the Polaris engine and how it compares?
Hello, and thanks, Brian.
