Had that bug long before i got it. New headlights are already in and my LED kit arrives tomorrow so ill have a new project really soon.

oh and the Harley is likely to be sold for full payoff value later today as it’s worth more then I owe. Coleman was offering about 50% of that.

Well the story goes like this, I went to Coleman powersports in Virginia. Was looking to trade in the Harley as I can’t ride for 2 years due to being attacked by a Rottweiler on NYE last year. They lowballed the hell out of me and having read the forums about taking a long drive to a dealer I started looking around at all the others. I also checked Facebook for used to find a good deal.

I found a 2018 for 18,5. Got him to drop to 18 even pretty easy. That’s when things get harder. I got 3 loans approved in short order of varying apr. ( for the record navy federal and usaa start at 9.6 regardless of credit rating so avoid them service credit union drops to the 4.2 range if it’s good )

anyway he was an older guy and did not trust this new fangled internet thing. Didn’t want any part of it. So things like my bank is requesting a scan of your title didn’t work. After him backing out of the deal 2 times because he couldn’t go to a bank and deal with a human I said f it and did a loan with navy so he could deal with humans as we have navy fed near by. When he was supposed to show up he missed the appointment at the bank that he whined so hard for. So I ended up delivering the check to him never having visited the bank completely eliminating every last piece of his justification for not using my low apr place. All that said, I immeditaely lined up the low apr place to refi me back down to 4.2 away from navy.

Sorry for the long boring part of the story. It was actually really interesting to have it all go wrong cause I used the high apr to get another 1k off and still got the low apr in the end.

So I pick it up on a Thursday. It has the esp light which I read about. I take it to the dealer on Saturday. When I’m told that the bike is 6 weeks old and was purchased there on feb 13th 2019.

So 17k for a 6 week old slingshot SL...

All in all.... all the hell.... totally worth it.

yeah. I have plastidipped a great many things. motorcycles a plenty. So I'm looking at a bora bora pearl blue. or maybe a pearl white but the Navy blue isn't likely to stay to long.

If it were something other than red... wish I could have gotten white or orange honestly. But the price on this was too good to pass up.

32 degrees.

already got a few hundred miles on it. took it to work every morning since I got it. way easier to take out at 32 than the Harley.

Updates pics Included

Good Pic tomorrow. Didn’t get it home until dark. So they suck

WraithSS I’m totally down for that.

As of tonight I am the proud owner of a 2018 SL. Got it for 17k which in my opinion was a steal.

Annapolis MD

It’s at 600 at the moment but I’m waiting from one more guy to talk to me about it that is apparently well known in the sling circles to see if we can get it down some.

Mod bug was present and accounted for long before the sling was even being looked at.

Anybody here in the DMV?

Subject says it all.

2018 Navy Blue SL

Hoping to join team sling this week.
