I won first place in the trike category. But I was the only trike there, so......

Have you guys seen this?

Only 5000 more miles and I get to try mine out.
I installed mine without changing the oil (I had just recently changed it before I got the fumoto.) I just did a "quick swap". I pulled the old oil drain plug with one hand and quickly installed the fumoto with the other. I did lose a little oil, but it was so little that I didn't even have to add more after the swap.
I also got some oil on my hands and on the outside of the fumoto, but that was easy and quick to clean up.

Repost when it's all 3s
Ok. At the rate I'm going, that will be in a month or two.

Ahhhhhh. I've really been racking up the miles this spring.

How do you get custom design for the lights?
SSREAPERI'm not sure about that. I got mine from eBay. There are many designs you can choose from there. There are probably places that will allow you to custom design an image, but I don't know how to contact any.

Those batman lights look awesome!

Sorry about the truck I know how much that hurts
Yup. I felt like a moron when I did it because I checked the pin and I thought it was locked. I found out the hard way that it wasn't. But the truck will be as good as new when it comes out of the shop. And there's one mistake that I'm fairly sure I never have to worry about making again.
How did you get both trailers there? Two trips? or is it legal to link them together?
I think it's probably legal here, but I'm not ballsy enough to do it. I just had my brother pull the trailer for me with his truck. I pulled the 5th wheel. My sister-in-law was kind enough to volunteer to drive the Slingshot here so that it didn't have to ride in the stuffy old trailer. How kind of her!!! LOL!!! She had a BLAST driving it. It's about a 2 hour trip one way and she loved every minute of it.

This is at a small RV park on Kentucky lake near Buchanan, Tennessee. I braced the trailer with jack stands front and back (no need to have a truck connected to it in order to drive in and out) so I can use it as a garage for the Slingshot.
On a side note.... take a look at the bed rails on my truck!!! I thought the 5th wheel hitch was locked when it actually wasn't. I tried to pull the camper and I drove out from under it. It fell onto the truck and crushed the bed rails. It is HEAVY! Cha-ching.... $4,500.00 for my auto body guy - no damage at all to the camper. Luckily I have full coverage insurance. I'm scheduled to take the truck in for repair in a couple of weeks. I'm having him touch up a few other areas and re-do the pin striping while it's in the shop. It'll look awesome when I get it back. MAKE SURE YOUR CONNECTIONS ARE SECURE WHEN YOU ARE HAULING ANYTHING!!!!

@Tech_Rick should think about this too.
I'm back in Kentucky now. 30 degrees as I type this! Brrrrrrrrrr! I'm not much of a cold weather rider, so the slingshot is staying parked until the weather improves.
