I did buy a DDM cover today

studiopeg I would go back to the dealer that did the swingarm replacement. Any dealer that has a old swingarm can and should give you the axle to correct this. If the dealer doesn't come good for this I would call and start a file with Polaris. This should be covered as I would assume the part was defective.

Thanks. I’ve concluded that I’m going to have to do just that, and it’s not going to be cheap. But my local dealership sucks. I’m going to have to search for a reputable dealership first. 325+ slings here in Maggie Valley and not one with this issue. Figures.
Sorry for your bad luck on this! The lock nut doesn't look like it's got much thread at all that it's attached to, and I believe that is supposed to be something like 150 foot pounds of torque. No way I'd want that much torque on a nut with little thread, and it's set at that for a reason. By all means, put a cover on it if you want..... AFTER it's fixed! As for the dealership woes, I get it. I have 2 dealers within 70 miles of me, and neither will ever touch my SS again. My dealer now is nearly 2 hours away, but worth it. Good luck!

I am only covering the axle for the show and shine competition at 3. It comes off after that so I can keep an eye on the lines they painted for me across both nuts.
After I get home I have decided to fight Polaris for the repair. This is clearly a defective product or their dealership screwed it up. The dealership is the former owner’s out in Oklahoma so going back to them is out.

Best of Show. Would have meant more if more Slingshots showed up for the competition. Still, fun.

A special thanks to Scott and to all who made this event possible!!!

studiopeg , please forgive me for giving a vote to the patriotic painted slingshot, airoutlaw and I both seen you would win by a landslide... and I couldn't let the patriot go without at least one vote... if I had to of chosen the winner by myself - that would've been hard... all three were beautifully customized machines. I'm glad you won.

I feel alot better today. I have been exhausted since I arrived. Today I will be heading out around 10am riding somewhere. If anyone that like to ride super fast wants to tag along just come the trailer where I am selling t-shirts and let me know.. i will most likely head over to the skyway and then back though Coker creek.
[/quote]That was such a fun ride! Thanks again for letting me tag along!

Dave@DDMWorks is enjoying the end of the event!
Dave actually finished that monster? It's funny everyone at that table (around 12 of us) had those gigantic fish bowl margaritas except my wife as she was rocking the Fisher Price my first margarita. Dave's face with that first sip was priceless, if only I had snapped a pic of that.
I swear that table consumed at least 3 gallons of Tequila as those were some of the strongest I've ever seen. It was great to meet all of you and sorry we had to split so early, but we had to make that 2.5 hour trek home.
Great memories everyone!

Summer Breeze and I just got back home to Georgetown.

unfortunately for me riding to Maggie Valley would be over 4,400 miles round trip which is why I pray that someday the Las Vegas event will grow in size to be as big as Maggie Valley
heck even the Colorado Springs event would be over 2,000 miles round trip
