It’s not just water
It doesn’t take too many pieces of gravel under that back wheel to make it squirrelly.
too many squirrels under the back wheel make it bumpy as well.

It makes me leery to hear of someone destroying 2 angle drives.....could they both have had manufacturing defects.....possible....by highly unlikely.....which leads to possible abuse....
Supercharger over powering the stock parts
Oversized wheel causing increased stress
Excessive accelerations and braking
I admit we all “get on it” from time to time....moderation.....I’m going to be more mindful of driving like a nut for no reason...to reduce my own level of equipment abuse.
Is there anyone manufactring heavy duty angle drive cases and gearing.
My signature line of getting rode hard every time is not just a cute saying... I'm supercharged and consistently redline 2 and 3rd gear... mainly I like the g's and the wooosh noise it makes. I must admit I've never changed the angle drive oil (24000 miles) I'm on my third rear tire... I think there must be a few bad angle drives out there, or maybe I just have a good one.

Welcome to the forum canegrinder . Yes! There is a lot of info on this forum. Also to help you out learn how to use the search function and if you cannot find what you want or need there just ask. Near about anything you can ask has been covered in great detail before
Not that we don't mind hashing, rehashing and beating a dead horse every once in awhile … Welcome canegrinder!

Blaze It would be worth calling Polaris Customer Service... I mean, all they can do is say no. Same with your dealer. Sorry for your bad luck and I hope it changes!

Keep them wheels rolling Cape Sling Glad you stopped by and certainly glad to hear all is well.

I would rather discuss what kind of oil to put in the motor?

Hey all, managed to try to get some time off from this "retirement job" Marlene and I are going to be at Jonathans Creek and should arrive Wednesday. Not as much time as I had hoped for, but any day in the Sling is a good one. Look forward to seeing some old friends EjFord dangerdarrell and making new ones! ericastar76 I have a minor wrench project installing some gauges if you run out of things to do
I am really looking forward to this event. Been a year since I've seen some of you all.

There is asking price... and then selling price. I suspect the 29k will turn out to be more accurate. IF you go into this thinking your Slingshot is an investment....

Dang, I'm such a follower, I signed up without reading any of the fine print. However, I read the list of the fine folks on the board of directors, and knew that they wouldn't intentionally try to screw me. … and I know where most of them live. There must be woods around their house too.

rabtech , wasn't trying to be hurtful. I don't personally have too many issues. And the issue pre-dates the transition to the new forum.... Whenever there is a push to get people to sign up for the map, there is always a handful of folks who say they can't use it or can't figure it out. Plus, you are always going to have a certain percentage of the constituency who just doesn't want to play. That's all I was saying. Make it mandatory.
On a separate note... Where you taking all those kids? LOL
Ok, so that reminds me of the most tasteless, creepy joke I know... and I'll tell it anyway.
An old man and a young boy are walking through the woods. The young boy looks at the man and says "these woods sure are creepy and scary". The old pervert says "yeah, you should feel sorry for me, I have to walk out of here alone..."

I can understand the safety concerns and the idea of riding with a large group and helping out a charity.
Send the charity a check and go for a ride on your terms.I can't believe that I agree with @Bigdog! I love riding with a small group of folks that I know their skills. I've not found that to ever be the case with charity events.
Heck, I've even signed up for some "aggressive" rides at Sling events and heard people complain it was too aggressive.
It is to each his own, ride your own ride. Enjoy. Life is an adventure. Live it.

Peace upon you and your family @Ross.

It's sad. I retired, and have half the ride time I used to have... shouldn't have taken that new job. LOL. I don't have any good pictures @Ross, but I'll certainly take a calendar again!

Have a great day @MiM

I only use the mirror to make sure no one is catching me... I've never noticed vibration in it, perhaps we are vibrating at the same speed.

Next will be a recall issued on the post cards...

Bill, you nailed it. The offer was just too good to turn down. Shameless plug for the oil and gas industry. If you want to know why you pay so much at the pump... I have it figured out now.

I must post my regrets as my new job (so much for retirement ) has me relocating to Beckley WV for the near future. We are canceling our travels to Maggie Valley this year. Hope to see you all sometime.

Deer whistles emit a tone that the government can use to track you...
