ooo, Goats, that's awesome, is it a certain blue and white one that most people on here will recognize?
NO...it's an fast red one that looks just like the one he has....he's going to be sneaky as he challenges others.

What happened to just writing about the facts, nothing but the facts...
NO fun....

Too late. I've already ruined the mirror. It scratches way to easily. Luis from Slingmods sent an email saying a replacement mirror is on the way. All I need is a drum sander to shape the back of it.
I've had my convex mirrors on for about 2 years and no problems.. Hope the new one works well. Have you added the mirror extensions? The two work great together.

Hey look, everyone has an opinion about the tire to use, just like they got an, well, you know
I've been running the Nitto 555 and got 45,000 on the fronts before I changed and about 25,000 miles on 2 on the back. I don't run as hard as lots of the guys, but I do push it a little. I've been real pleased.

Hi All, new owner here from Southern Ontario Canada.
Just took the plunge, traded the motorcycle and purchased a 2019 Slingshot SL. and now the upgrades begin ....
Get lots of seat time in before going to NUTS with the 'mods'...lots of things you can do. Welcome to the "World of Slingshot Insanity" Over the years I have seen guys spend lots on stuff that three weeks later they wanted to change...

Great Picture. Hope the folks at the Back of the Dragon got one as good to use.

Has anyone else had issues with the passenger mirror? I bought the mirrors off Slingmods and installed them the other day. First day out the passenger side mirror fell off and broke but the tape stayed stuck to the original. Now I can't use the stock mirror because that tape wouldn't come off without scraping, and that scratched the crap out of the mirror. The problem I found with the new mirror is the back is flat and we're trying to stick it to a convex surface.
Slingmods had me send them a photo and will forward it to the manufacturer to get a replacement, but I'll have to do something to modify the surfaces.
A little bit of 'paint thinner' … soften the tape and use your finger nail or an 'old credit card' and you should be able to get the tape/glue off without hurting the mirror or the paint. use a soft rag to put the thinner on the tape.

Display MoreShe said it today. Allot of you will know what I'm talking about. Denise said those two four letter words out of her mouth as we were taking tables down
"NEXT YEAR" I said, "are you sure?" she said, "YES"
We are good to go.
We all like Tim, BUT we love Denise for all the work that she did.... Thanks Denise.

This was a wonderful experience for the wife and I. We met some of the most wonderful people on this trip! Big Big thank you to 123hotdog and his lady for putting up with all of us and for the effort that went into this event. Thank you to Ghost for helping us get there and back safely and for introducing us to the sling community! Was a bit timid in coming knowing that my sling was mostly stock, but all of you guys made our sling feel right at home without all of the mods, and we thank you guys so much. Looking forward to next year!!
Ripley having owned my Slingshot since Feb 2015 … mine is still mostly stock OEM … do have a F4 Customs 5+ tinted windshield and a hugger rear fender.....in the Slingshot world that's pretty naked but I do have lots of miles...that bring lots of smiles.

Tim & Denise --- GREAT Weekend. THANKS.

I did 600 miles today and I am in Bristol. Oh well born in 1947 and I have (damn I need to check) around 89,000 miles and change since Feb. 12, 2015
FunCycle you got your Slingshot 14 days before I got mine that's why you got more miles... Little over 83,000 for me.
-
Thanks Guys! I feel like doing it again soon.
I love a LOOOOONG ride... And I do some.... But I have a 15 mile loop that I do lots of evenings just to blow the troubles of the day off. A 15 mile or like I did one day ---Charleston, SC to La Porte, IN --- 915 miles every mile forward puts a little smile on my face.

Well, I hope it is not a problem, but, I had tried to register and it says " The closing date for this event has closed".
So, I am new to all of this. Dang computers! LOL
The worst thing that can happens to a newbie NOT registered when he shows up to an event is that he has to fill everyone's gas tank. Glad your coming. 84,000+ miles on my slingshot in 4.5 years has cost me a lot for gas, so I do need a little help with gas. Tim will get you added to the list some how. (still need help with gas money and FunCycle may also---he has a few more miles than I do.)

I would to announce two new FB pages.
