Slingshot Owners Group (SOG)

Sadly my Harley hasn't been on the road since April 2015. I'm sure it had high hopes one day last summer when I rolled it out of the garage, but I was just moving it to my shop to make space for other stuff in the garage.

Quote from SoCal

I agree and at my age I don’t heal quite as fast as I used to. Although I feel like I’m losing an old friend and surrendering. Neither one of those are palatable, at this time anyway. I have said this before as well, no one goes by a car accident and says I will never drive a car again.

Not related to this thread, and if Ross wants me to I will remove it. But those words were what I said until August 30th, 2013, when this van pulled a rolling U turn from the side of the road and I T boned him at 40-45 MPH with no helmet, jeans, boots and a t shirt. By the Grace of God I was spared, but I have suffered with the injuries since that time and continue to. It did more than total my "beater bike", the one I used to put miles on and be a daily rider. It changed the way I think, and it makes it difficult to really enjoy the ride on 2 wheels. Just a note here, my foot was pushing hard on the rear brake when the impact happened. It bent the frame there and that is what totaled the bike.

ugh Goats_Hogs that's a bugger , I KNOW THE FEELING AS WELL but was a little slower for me so I walked away with a dozen stitches in my right knee and other bumps and bruises.

heh Ross KayTwo  DKF Texas and other SOG fACEBOOK USERS you might like this for SOG FB group, I put it on My new FB group (STRICTLY POLARIS SLINGSHOT) today and guys are loving it. Its an interactive map I found on Slingshot France group last might and put it on mine today . I can help you set it up , What makes it different is after everybody places their pin on the map , they can also load as many Slingshot or local area scenery pics under their pin as well .

But Don,t tell Goats_Hogs or DKF Texas , I needed some locations for examples on the map at first so they're already stars !

Never a good thing to say the least- I’m glad you made it out OK considering. I have been down three times myself, luckily it was when I was younger. At the end of the day I guess I’m just grappling with the prospect of not riding anymore and it has been a part of me since I was 16.
