I've been looking at buying but haven't yet. Still researching. I'm retired and my Wife will retire in about a year. I've been a 50yr motorcycle rider and my Wife loves riding on the back but we've decided we'd like to try something different. We live in Dayton, TN and were wondering if there are members in the area that would like to answer questions as they arise. Looking forward to reading some of the posts and gaining more knowledge... Ride Safe!

John Price is in Tenn. Ask away if you cannot find your answers by using the search function. Just about anything and everything is covered already. But if that fails someone will answer your questions. I have been riding since 1964 and still have a Harley that I do not ride, BUT there are 93,000 miles on the Sling since Feb. 2015, I just bought/stole a spare 2016. Just make sure the credit card is paid off before you get the Slingshot. I pretty much think that the average is between $5,000 and $10,000 for mods.

Be sure to put "Slingshot's in the Smokies" in Maggie Valley in late May on your list of things to do.

drfubar pull the trigger and you will not regret it! When you find the local owners you might be surprised how many guys will toss you their keys.

My recommendation: Don't get behind the wheel of a boosted Sling. Unless you want a boosted Sling!

Welcome to the forum - lots of knowledge and help here. Plus me.

If you are not locked on buying new, you can get some good deals used from people we know.

Welcome! If there is anything you want to know, everyone here is super helpful and should be able to answer question you have on the Slingshots, get out there and drive one though, they are a lot of fun!

Welcome drfubar!

I had to look up Dayton but appears your just a couple hours southeast of us here in Nashville. We have group here called Music City Slingshot Owners. We have met up and done some rides with a group out of your area called Scenic City Slingshots if I remember the name correct. Either way, there are definitely some people around. We'd be glad to help with anything we can. Don't hesitate to reach out.

I know Crockett Powersports there in Chattanooga has assisted with one of the rides to tour the Polaris factory in the past and I've heard good things about their dealings with the slingshot community around them. Hopefully they can get you taken care of if your looking for new. Aside from that we have some great members in our local group as well as on this forum who would be great to get together with.

As FunCycle suggested, be sure to look up Slingshots In The Smokies 2020. Be a great first g2g whether you have one by then or not. Keep us posted on how your looking goes this morning and good luck

Yep, went to Crockett this morning and my Wife and took one for a pretty good ride... I'm in love!

You won't regret it. I still feel the same after three years

I still feel the same since Feb 12 2015, and 93,000 miles and that is why I now own two. One for back up with 10,000 miles on it.

No offense Dr. Fubar, but there is so much out there to read and watch, by the time you're done doing the research, you'll have missed valuable riding time!!!!!

Pull the trigger Doc.

You won't be disappointed!!
