I have a battery tender on my Slingshot and a Cub Cadet tractor with a snow plow on it at my girl friends house during the winter. At my house I have a Cub Cadet tractor with a snow plow in a shed behind my house another Cub Cadet with a cutting deck on it and my BMW in the garage all with battery tenders on them. The only thing without a battery tender on it is my Pickup truck because I drive that daily during the winter.When spring comes around I take the battery tenders off everything and all my batteries are good.I haven't bought a battery in years doing this.

I think that is the 2nd mod I did on mine. Short throw shifter with the Ultimate shift knob. Gives it a complete different feeling. Makes it a joy to drive stick.

I have a 2018 and the wires are tagged. Not tagged right at the end you might have to follow the wire down some to find the tag.

Side note to all who don't know. Brake fluid will eat paint right off your painted surfaces be careful so you don't splash or spill on any surfaces.

This is Yoda she is my girlfriends dog and a rescue.When she first got her she was so spooked if you dropped a pencil she would try to find a place to hide.After about 6 moths of love and attention she was doing much better. She has had her for about a year and a half now and if I fall asleep on the couch she comes over and nudges my arm to wake me up so I can pet her.

I have a 2018 and I changed the engine oil and the angle drive lube at 500 miles. It made a big difference in the noise it is much quieter now. I used Royal Purple 80 / 140. I have almost 2000 miles on that oil now so I am going to change again this spring and see how much more steel comes out. Then refill it with Royal Purple to the next scheduled service recommendation.

Ok Thanks. It looks pretty simple. A summer Saturday morning project.

I bought a Bad Boy air horn and a relay kit off E-Bay and wired it into mine and it sounds great and is nice and loud.

Kyle are the existing bolts long enough to go thru the bracket and into the housing or do you need longer bolts?

Sheree202 Try to Google Imotorsport in Elmhurst IL.They are a dealer just outside Chicago IL. They have new and used Slingshots and free shipping in the lower 48. Check out the site something might catch your eye.

I have a 2018 Slingshot SL That I bought new in August of 2018. I just purchased a 3 yr extended warranty from Ball Equip.last week. I figure the money is well worth it if for nothing else than peace of mind. Like EJ said get the rear end pulled apart 1 time for oil leaks or God forbid a cracked housing and its money well spent.

I had a 2012 Harley FLHTP that I traded in on my Slingshot. I have been riding since I was 14 or 15 yrs old and just didn't feel comfortable on 2 wheels anymore.

I have a 2018 SL with a Bullet speed V back roof on it and had very good reception. Then I added a set of LED headlights now the radio will fade in and out so bad all you hear is some static. I started using I phone via blue tooth to listen to the radio now. I still want to find a fix for the stock radio because it has the GPS in it. Anybody else had that problem and found a fix for it?

FZ-1 Accessory Fuse Block for the Polaris Slingshot Glad I added this to mine and inline fuse right off the battery to power it up. Being a retired Mechanic all my connections and terminal ends are soldered and heat shrink.

I have been reading the reviews and figured might as well get in on the group buy so I just ordered mine now . I just put the Slingshot in its winter parking spot and covered it up today. So now I have something to look forward to when the weather starts to get warm again next Spring. The price with the group buy and the reward points I had sitting from previous purchases I had at Slingmods I had no other option except to get one. Plus I have never had a problem with anything I have purchased from them and they ship really fast.

I went with the same ones Wokka went with. They are bright and have a life time guarantee. They are a little expensive but as bright as they are and light everything up plus the life time guarantee I feel they are worth it. The difference is like day and night.

A lot of good information. Thank you.
