its the 2017 base model. I have tried to put the screws back in and they wont seat. when I tried to tighten the ones that were loose it made it worse and pulled one out. now they just hang there. its not a very good feeling as its new and still doesn't have 500 miles on it and already in this condition lol.

I have the straight black set which come with the Base model. They aren't fancy or designer or anything lol.

So far here are the only pics that I have . . . . . . I have a radio and back up camera included now. Trying to see what else I want to do to it lol.

thanks KayTwo, I will have to look into it. at this point I am not sure how the seats even go together. most of the pics that I have found show that the nut is embedded on the inside and apparently those are pulled through the back of the seat that is pinching the seat to the frame.

the dealer that I got the shot from was at coleman powersports in woodbridge va. Everytime I call them on the phone with questions its been a struggle for answers and the majority of the replies I get from them all say that they CANT do the type of work that I am looking for. They tell me to take it to other places to get looked at or worked on. I have been told that the same owner has another store in Tysons Corner and that I should go to them. I am debating whether to attempt to do it on my own.

I am thinking the same thing but am not happy with them because there were 2 coming out when I drove it off the showroom floor. So I am thinking that they aren't as competent as need be. But what choice do I have right? My other fear is that they will try and charge me for something that is most likely their or manufacturer fault.

Has anyone on here had issues with the seats coming apart? I just bought this at the end of Sept. Still has not hit 500 miles and the passenger seat has 4 screws coming out of the back of it. I am frustrated with buying it brand new and already coming apart. Does anyone know how to fix them?

thanks everyone for the warm welcome, we cant wait to get out there, so as I was reading through the thread, the up and coming events that are to be held, where can I find a list of those? and what is the reference to Slingshots Uncorked? where and when is this?

Wassup dude! I'm just up the road on 123 in FFX Station, right next to Fountain Head. I could probably walk to your place.
Look for a PM from me for contact info. I know everyone in the area, and even a little about slingshots.

sounds good, would like to meet other SS owners and go riding.

well I know my wife doesn't want me spending any more money on it lol, at least not for awhile. right now I just want to get riding in it. its a big hit with the kids.

Hey all, here goes a wild shot in the dark right? I am new to the SS realm, been riding bikes my whole life, wife cut me short on 2 wheels due to accidents but authorized me to get this one lol. we are near the burke area in Lorton. I just purchased the base model in November 17. I have added a radio, backup camera and LED's to it. Looking for like minded individuals in the area that like to get together. The posts originally that I had seen showed 2016. I am glad that I am able to connect with other slingshot owners. Thanks for the warm welcome.
