I have a 2015....can people that have owned several different years...notice anything that made you glad you upgraded..besides just being newer...was it worth it or make you sorry.
Any noticeable differences between years
-
Just the location of the gps units. They move them around so people don't take them out
-
I haven't owned more than one... research shows the following:
Wider color selection from the original two color availability...
Battery sizing...
Windshield changes...
Splashguard changes...
Rear center lower body panel shortened...
Four package offerings...
Purchase with top option...
Recalls...
Production cost increases...
and put your tin foil hat on...
Polaris is looking to produce their own engine for the Slingshot. Release date???
All this has been moving in this direction since the second year of production! Wake up!
Will 2018 be the peak sales year for Slingshots?
Will recalls of ORV's and Slingshots hurt or delay new production goals?
Is it worth it or would you be happy...
Dunno, you decide.

I knew it....

Being that the SlingShot came out of the starting gate bucked up right against it's weight limit, it makes it doubtful that there will be any game changing options offered in the future from the manufacturer, which makes us very happy that we are very content with our 2015, which is the best model in our opinion.

I owned an early model 2015 and now own a 2018. What I found are some noticeable difference.
Hood hinges are better and more sturdy.
Engine performs better. Assume better tune
Velocity seats rock. -

Velocity seats rock.When you say better tune are you talking about the ECM. Or did they change other engine parts?

@Bigdog just the tune. No parts changes that I am aware of.
To your other post. Yes folks have done many versions of the rebuilds. DDMWORKS Sells a whole engine and also parts to “beef” up the engine
Can our dealers upgrade our old tuning or is it already optimized for our model?
-
Talking about engines has anyone rebuilt the motor with different cams, cranks and pistons? Do they even make “race” parts for the motor? Other than turbos?
I've heard of racers getting 1000 HP out of these engines.
-
Don’t know if dealer can optimize. Bob is the tune guru

BillOK, now after saying that, this revelation just may be a game changer where a group of SlingShot owners who were recently touring the Polaris factory were informed that the 2019 model will have a new Polaris designed engine.......................
