    I'm sure this will be a blessing for 1% of the recipients. For the remaining 99% it will be another added benefit leading to laziness and increasing the grip on government dependence.

    "The change, set to go into effect next year, will mean that participants of the U.S. Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, commonly known as SNAP, will be able to order groceries from the Uber Eats app using those benefits, the company said Wednesday."

    Ensuring our youth are informed they are oppressed. Only the democratic party can save them (and provide student Loan forgiveness). The local news did a story about her visit to a school in Readding Pa. The snippet had her spewing a whole bunch of vague statements. She informed the students that they are the first generation that will have less rights than their parents and grandparents. Really like what rights are they being denied? The right to keep and bear arms.


    Don't forget your oppressed and we'll pay off your student loan. Most important don't forget to vote! Brand loyalty for generations.


    Senior citizens affected by inflation don't count. They don't have that many votes left.

    Vice President Harris’s “Fight for Our Freedoms College Tour” will include visits to historically Black colleges and universities, Hispanic-serving institutions, community colleges, apprenticeship programs, and state schools. The Vice President will highlight how the Biden-Harris Administration has delivered for young people, outline the work ahead to protect fundamental freedoms, and hear directly from students who are organizing on the frontlines of these fights. She will also urge attendees to register to vote, use their voice, and stay engaged.

    Let’s all hope the VP does just as good a job with guns as she has done on the border —- NUTHIN !!!! :00008172:

    What a joke. If this administration was any kind of serious about preventing "violence" They would send Kamala to visit high crime areas and communicate with local law enforcement on ways to prevent "crime" but this administration is not interested on preventing crime.

    Saw this



    It was gorgeous. R model, manual, heated/cooled seats. Color was darker and striking in person, beautiful machine. If I didn't have a supercharger installed on my sling and quite honestly mine is looking, sounding and operating better than ever I would have walked out with a much larger purchase than an oil filter. Perhaps in a year or two. Dealer said they are selling quite a few slingshots. Good stuff!

    Sorry if I am joining in a conversation in which options have already been discussed. This happened to me two years ago just prior to heading out to Maggie Valley. Wanting to get this corrected prior to Maggie I ordered this kit along with speed bleeders. The speed bleeders arrived in time, however the break pressure kit did not. I replaced the old fluid with a bleed and it worked for me, to this day all is fine. Theory, water vapor collected in the break fluid. My system heated up the water boiled and set of the switch? I believe this has been discussed also. I also ride my Harley with a large group. Some have had this issue and it did have to do with the ABS system and air getting trapped in the module which requires a digital wrench to do a proper bleed and as I believe it was as FunCycle ? said. I have heard it can be done with a hard break application to activate the ABS and push the old fluid through the module and then rebleed? Or of course it could be these switches. Guess it depend on the situation. For me, I suppose it was a simple flush and bleed with the speed bleeders. Sometimes, you get lucky.


    Longwood Gardens closes as search for convicted killer who escaped from Pennsylvania prison intensifies (msn.com)


    Not far from my area. In fact, I took my wife to Longwood Gardens on our first date.


    Longwood Gardens, located in Chester County, announced in a banner at the top of its website that the gardens are closed "until further notice" as the manhunt continues for Cavalcante, who is in the United States illegally. The closure of the more than 1,000 acres of manicured gardens and woodlands comes as the search for Cavalcante heads into its eighth day.

    Over 400 personnel, massive overtime, constant helicopters/drones in use. massive loss of income from the gardens being shut down for over a week + and counting. Millions waisted.


    This guy was a killer in Brazile. How did he get here? He then killed someone in the U.S. Think of the millions he has waisted! So, they`ll catch him most likely without a weapon (unless he stole one or has a contact to provide) take him into custody and he'll go to prison for the rest of his life wasting millions more of our tax dollars. Think of all the other even bigger plans in motion at this moment.


    Terrible waste of human life and taxpayers' dollars for what? Welcome aboard, come to the U.S. but do it the right way.

    A little late on the post. Marlton NJ 4th of July parade. The slings are a crowd favorite. My wife typically doesn't ride in the sling but she was watching the parade and I picked her up out of the crowd for the second half of the route as the official crowd waiver. Five of us all veterans. Amaizing we are all only a few miles apart. Good time!




    Not interested in buying back. Final settlement was 17,400 for 2015 SL sling and 3,000 for accessories. I only had 3k accessory coverage. So I'm very pleased with progressive. Check in bank.

    $17,400 you'll be back on the road in no time. What are you waiting for? Glad you are OK!



    Many thanks mpj220 for the post, I couldn't locate your original post which I printed out some time back. Good stuff! I had a chance to do a test ride yesterday. Temps low 80s and humid. Feet stayed comfortable in the heat box. My best thought was from the old song by seals and Crofts. Summer Breeze makes me feel fine. As Fun Cycle stated and surprising the location seems to have a dead spot. Still it does add a "breeze" in the hot box and a breeze is welcomed. I did not cut the air scoop (gauge pod) as MPJ220 did, so not sure if an added benefit but it sure won't hurt. Thoughts, not the airflow I had hoped for but a welcomed benefit. Fairly easy mod that actually looks like it should be from the factory. Baker air wings (at least the full style) I use on my NASCAR style windscreen provide the easiest and most effective air flow benefit. The mod above extends it into the footbox. I think it's worth the time and effort for the cooling benefit.

    This works real good if you do not have the fenders on. I have the kit on Sling I and also Sling II. But I do not run fenders on either one

    I saw a complete kit out there placed higher up it entails cutting the rain fenders and the tub wall using a template. At first, I had thought about purchasing that kit. Not sure if that is the reference?

    This was posted some time ago by someone on the forum using a car vent and gauge pod as an air scoop placed below the fender. I'll get a chance to use it tomorrow. Hoping for some lower air flow.

    I'd love to know how drilling through the double walls you were able to drill through the outer wall in just the right location. I bought all the necessary parts years ago, but have been afraid to drill the holes.

    I'm with you on that as it was why I held out so long. But after the first cut if you follow below there really isn't much concern.


    I made a template using thin cardboard (from case of beer or soda in above picture). Traced the outer diameter of the vent then the inner diameter. Marked the center on the template and punched a small hole for marking. Placed the template on the lower forward inside sidewall just above the floor mat and marked the sidewall with the center of the template using a silver marker. I first drilled a small pilot hole through both walls with a small bit from inside to outside holding the drill about level. Then used the 3" hole saw from inside to outside following the pilot drill. It's fairly forgiving as to vent fit. In fact after drilling with the whole saw you will need to ream the inner circle just a bit. Thats where the drum sander came in. The main concern is not placing the hole too high above the bottom floor so as to cut into the base of the rain fenders/deflectors. Again, I placed just above my mats and had a good 1/2 inch + to spare.

    Baker air wings help out tremendously with cockpit airflow. Thanks to EjFord for the air wing showing at Slingshots in the Poconos a few years back. I have them and would highly recommend. Some time ago someone posted this wonderful vent install. I saved it and actually purchased the items last year. Just got around to installing today. Now waiting for the silicone adhesive to fully cure for a test run. I think it's going to be like riding on cloud nine! Install was fairly easy and turned out great! Mant thanks to the original poster and the idea! Cool rides await!
