I don’t get back to TX until Monday the 20th. Going to need to get caught up on stuff around the house the next day... Game for Wednesday though.

I bet the rear end of your SS looks spread eagle, huh @Tripod?
-
I would really like to add these, but fear they won't work with my overall setup. Stinger top and rear windscreen. Would need a set to test fit/modify setup to make these work.
Then once mounted... does the open/closing of the top impact the bag size too much?

I'm already rich, Joey. I just don't have a lot of money...
Just got to move somewhere that allows your money to go further. Texas seems right!

Too bad the coat hanger fix didn't stop the rattle. It really looked awesome after it was installed.
I'm in the rear exit only camp! (paging Tripod)
Based on the amount of known problems, I would seek a different MFG.

Thanks for putting this all together Doug! Payment sent. You're gonna be RICH!

I don't disagree in the slightest @Gadgeteer. Hence the reason I bought 2 sets. I would buy a set of SLRs if they came avail too.

Picked up two sets of SL wheels over the years. 2015 with like new tires for $600 in Nov 2016. Then a set of 16.5 SL wheels with new tires for $300 just a month ago. The all black 2016 SL set seems to command about $5-600.
The SLR wheels are the only set commanding a premium to date that I know of. Usually around $1k with like new tires.

Cough, cough... Think I'm feeling sick... We'll see what the wife says...Our daughter has been home from school with some crud for a few days so it’s going around. Pretty sure it wouldn’t be scrutinized... you know, if’n you call in sick.

Bazinga! Great news Doug. Thanks for making this a reality.

Great news indeed. Thanks for posting Tripod.
I hadn't heard this benefit was coming until I saw this post and boy do I miss the BX shopping days.

We are like 4 miles north of 1604 up Blanco. Hard to tell what traffic if any would be like. Depends on when you leave. Takes about 30 minutes to get south to Lackland when not in the thick of traffic.

Been rather busy getting our new home all set up. Finally settled on a pool/backyard oasis contractor. Pretty stoked to have broken ground and get the yard to match the quality of the home/interior. Project should be done NLT Feb 2018. Pulling the necessary permits and getting fuel for the spa heater all worked out. Fingers crossed the local utility company can bring in natural gas and I can avoid a buried propane tank.
Did someone say Slingshots in Texas Hill Country after party at my place?
Here is a sneak peek of what it will become:
Here are some before shots of the back yard.

PM sent. Been too busy and off the forum for a bit.

I'm in 4th gear up to 100mph. If I am set at a speed and will be there for a while I may shift into 5th. But I don't see much in gas savings by using 5th. Just saves on noise.
-
thanks for this! just ordered my set earlier this morning. Got an ETA of 25th. I have 2016 base slingshot, this should fit with no other add ons right?
You need the shorter rear clevis or your ride height is raised a tad in the rear. Ask your dealer to flash you to the SL/LE wheel size to get your speedo to match the wheels.

No nomination from me. But I'm in to support the cause.

Now that I live in a free state I exercised my right too and purchased a new tool. Been eyeing this in California and knew it was not within reach there. God bless Texas!

Don't know how you find the time! It's just work, girls, sleep, and repeat...
I'll PM you my number and maybe 1 out of 20 times I'll be able to join... If I can get away...Do that and I'll do the same.
At the moment I am taking a break from work and recharging. Helps to get stuff done around the house and make this place a home.
