Happy Birthday to a new friend.

I guess shaving cream might work I your AR has a hair trigger. I have a AR15 I built for bench rest shooting but think I will skip the shaving cream. I shoots 1/4" groups at 100yds and uses a Bob Sled not a mag so is load single shot. Lets me load rounds longer then the mags will take improving head spacing.

God don't let my live in lady friend is your post.

I can't believe that some Democrats don't own guns. Matter of fact I know I have went hunting with a few when I was gowning up. Guess maybe some of them still had a little common sense back then. Their body guards are not going to be happy giving up theirs.

Last three days I been carrying a scoped Ruger Redhawk 44 Mag in a shoulder holster. That is only because I was testing new reloads at the indoor range. I normally carry a S&W Shield in 45ACP or a Body Guard in my pocket when wearing gym shorts.

We have those Love Bugs here in NE Florida also not looking forward to Love Bug Season. I am going to keep Sally sprayed with the Lucus Slick Mist and hope that helps. Hope it taste good as I will need it on my teeth also. You just can't help but smile driving a SS.

Well I found a 3' USB extention cable I had and am currently using that. I ordered a 6" one from Amazon. I was at the dealers today for the 500 oil change and check up and the guy checking the little things like lights and that notices the cable. Told him the port was next to impossible to plug into. He said yep.

Today I took my Slingshot to the dealers, HoleShot PowerSports in Fleming Island Fl, for her 500 mile.

48 here and heading out the door to take Sally in for her 500 oil change and check up.

That darn USB port on my 2020 R is next to impossible for me to get a memory stick in. Probably my fat fingers or just plain clutz. I remover the music stick yesterday to do the software and map update and never got it back in. Very tempted to put a USB extension cable in and use it to hook the memory sticks to. If I had a very short one I might but a rolled up 8 foot white one just don't look very good. I am sure it was a good idea for them to put the rubber around the jack and flip up cover but it sure makes it tough to use. Don

The knob on the left side of my scope turns the dot off or changes the insensitive Don.

The software fix for mine shifting into neutral on it's own made a new machine out of mine. My 500 mile is Friday I will see about the shifters. I say 500 I now have 700 because 500 happened during the Christmas holidays and its been three weeks to get this appointment. I drive her every day and it adds up fast. Don

I haven't been happy with allstate since they dropped my homeowners insurance years ago when they dropped 50,000 policies in Florida that had wood frame houses. It was nearly impossible to get reinsured and almost had to go with the states expensive insurance or loose my home. Thank you Allstate. Insured my new SS with State Farm in November for close to 500. Don

Well I am debating on having my dealer install the paddle shifter but at $140 a hour labor maybe not if it might take 4 hours. I have a great dealer here in NE Florida, HoleShot PowerSports but sure don't want to be their first install. I could screw up a one car funeral so don't mind paying them a little labor. Don

Thanks. I just bought this 2020 R Friday and drove it home in the afternoon which was about 10 miles on country blacktop roads. Great ride really enjoyed it. Later in the evening I took my girlfriend out for her first ride. This was my first time it failed. Braked on a 45 mph road to make a right turn on to a street. All normal till a accelerated after the turn and she rev'ed up passed the 3K shift point to 4K and the D light went out and N came on. Coasted to side of roar and braked to a stop pushed D and to the girl friend home. Think maybe she was bad luck and accused her of putting her hand on the buttons during the turn. She said she didn't. So and run the same route by myself and darn if it didn't fail on the same corner. Then again on a sharp left curve. Started the route again and it failed on a right hand curve that I didn't even brake for so I went home. Got up Saturday and headed to the dealer. She failed on a sharp left with a big F350 on my tail. Luckily this is a housing area with a 25 mph speed limit. This is a little disappointing a expensive toy that I got maybe a hour and a half use out of. The service dept worked on it all day with no luck. They had on ideas and will call Polaris Tuesday as they are closed Mondays. I have wanted to go riding all day today which would have been far better then watching my Jags lose their 4 game in a row.

Yesterday I bought a new SS R with Autodrive. Drove it home which is about 12 miles with no problems. I live in a area with a lake and we have winding streets with a 25 mile speed limit. I went out later to drive around the area to get the feel of the thing. Well when taking a sharp curve it shifts into neutral causing me to have to pull over step on the brake and shift back into drive. I nearly got run over be a F350 that was right behind me to day as I was headed back to the dealer with it. Turns don't effect it if you are stopped and then go into them. Dealer has it now with no idea what's wrong.
