While I like the carbon fiber options out there, I think it would look out of place if that was the only carbon fiber addition to the SS. I for one am not willing to spend $1K on stick on carbon fiber pieces.
I have struggled with this same question for some time @ericastar76
I am willing to hear suggestions and follow this thread in an attempt to eradicate the last piece of advertisement left on my SS. The rest has been removed. 
Darn, I saw the thread title & got excited for a moment, I thought this might be referring to the "Skyline Blvd" in CA which is great Motorcycle ride (State Hwy 35)
Same. Damn.
The Forever Sharp adapter is pretty good from what I've heard. Not too expense and covers clock spring. Also short so stock location should be kept (or maybe more room gained)? Maybe buy something else or get credit with slingmods?
$60 on Amazon...
I flat out love the stock look of the forever sharp hub adapter and spacer. It does cover the clock spring and we concluded that I gained more room with this over stock. The dish of your aftermarket steering wheel plays a factor as well. I lost room going from NRG wheel to momo wheel.
^ you mean sister!
Did you buy them from someone for under $600 or is that what they sell for? If its what they sell for can you point me in the direction?
My local dealer offered them for $680 OTD with club discount... sorry, memory failed me as I bought them last August. Most dealers list them for $699 as far as I know. (Edited original post.)
If you wait until Polaris offers a 25% coupon on accessories it will work for the seats. Just remember the SLR seats are the velocity sport.
I swapped my 2016.5 stock seats for the 2017 SLR seats and love them. 2 huge benefits are lack of head rest and quick heat dissipation/retention from sun exposure. Then one can argue the looks of the SLR seats are nicer and they do have a lumbar support that either works for you or it doesn't. Be sure to sit in a set before you buy. Cost was under $600 $700 for the seats and the cost is only for the pads as you re-use the stock seat frame.
Only negative I can tell is they raise you up about 3/8" but it feels like to you are sitting 2" higher.
Actually 3 others in that driveway.
Seems I missed a fellow SS rider with my short visit.
Ask around to anyone using the Auto Underground rear wings
I have heard the do good job of moving the exhaust away from the back, I can't speak of it personally as I have no top and side exhaust but I spoke to a few people at SSITS who were very happy with the results - nice looking wing is as a bonus
I have it. It does help to further reduce the fumes even more.
This windscreen helped a ton to reduce the exhaust fumes. But did not eliminate them completely. Still on my quest to eliminate fumes I have added the large Underground Autostyling rear wing. This further reduced the fumes and I am satisfied for the time being.
I have yet to send off the ECM to Bob for tuning, but hear this is the final step to be as reduced as can be.
After running the dual rear WP exhaust with a F4 +5 windshield and Stinger top I have been sucking fumes. I mocked up a template for a rear windscreen and made a cheap version to test out. Since then I have worked with a local sign making shop to produce a rear windscreen that will function to stop exhaust fumes and look awesome. CNC cut 3/8" material with routed/rounded corners and flame polished. (NOTE: After they quoted prices, I dropped the idea of CNCing them. I can do it by hand for a third the cost.)
Since the original wind restrictor company wasn't offering these for our combination and honestly won't block exhaust fumes as configured... I stepped up to take this project on. I know Slingshot only is working on a wind restrictor compatible with the Madstad stinger top, but don't get your hopes up that the installation of it will reduce the exhaust fumes. I have been there and done that through my R&D of a rear windscreen. (NOTE: Seems Wind Restrictor Company is now offering a screen compatible with the Madstad stinger top. They did not make changes I suggested early on to help combat fumes. Still looking to find photos of it.)
Currently there are no plans for etching nor lighting my new version.
I considered adding two pieces to block the exhaust from entering from underneath the roll hoops as I have installed now. However, I just added the SSV Works roll hoop speaker pods and no longer have exhaust entering through that space. You will need to block this space if not running the speaker pods or will still get tons of exhaust in the cab.
As you can imagine I have spent lots of time building templates and testing out the best configuration for blocking exhaust with my combination. Others are on the same quest and to date, no resolution.
Here is the first version which was mounted to the inside and became a cleaning nightmare.
Eventually those rough corners got rounded and this version ended up being mounted to the outside of the roll hoops. The wind force flexed the acrylic too much. This was a template in 1/4".
Here is the mock up of the new version in 3/8" thick cast acrylic.
This one was hand cut, routed and polished. Needed to know the ultimate top configuration to accommodate the Madstad stinger top. For hand fabricated, this really turned out bitchen. How about that side reflection?
I am working with a company to coat SS hardware black in order to not stick out like a sore thumb. Most who see this in person can’t tell it was done by hand.
Okay, I have no plans on ever going with a turbo or super charger.
Said the same thing a year ago. Avoided riding in either for the same time. After last week's ride in @Slingrazor 's super charged monster... I am having second thoughts.
On our trip out to California and back we only saw 1 other sling.You came through Little Rock and didn't say high?
Pretty sure you saw two others in @STYLN 's driveway.
Spotted a base grey with Twist top in northern California on Hwy 85 North bound near the Camden Exit about 4pm yesterday. Second time I have spotted it and not sure who the owner is. Not on the FB group for NorCal and never been to any of the local events.
What are the odds he/she is a forum member here?
I think you kinda have to prove that your organized enough and united enough to bring in large numbers of Slingshots, before you can start planning multi-day events. Need to prove to the sponsors and vendors that you can bring in enough potential customers... Start with small single day events, build your following and numbers... Obviously I'm sure you guys have a ton of slings in Cali, it's just finding the right people to pull them all together, and creating a fun, organized event that makes people want to come back for more. For our Slingin in the Sun event, I created a project plan for the whole thing... I can share that with you if you would like.
@Storm Thanks for the pointers. I'd be happy to check out the plan you put together. We do have quite a few organized events that happen at the local level here in NorCal due to a great club that has been organized for some time. I'd like to get something together to bridge the gap between NorCal and SoCal. We are separated by about 350 miles give or take. If SoCal is active, They sure are quiet about it.
Seems the NorCal folks are primarily on FB and not forums.
Since @slingmods is the only real vendor we have on the west coast, it would make sense to include them in the planning/hosting.
I like the little bomb decal on the front wing of that black sling... SWEET!!
Thanks, those are my F-Bombs.
My SS be dropping them all over the place! HA.
Not to mention a chapter of the club if that is what we are calling it.
I know there are some trick slingshots in this state. I'd like to get the ball rolling to plan an event in either LA or SF.
Please let me know who i should get in touch with to start this up.
Should have deleted this thread. Seems the prank has been spoiled.
But as is common, this thread has been derailed... Re-title it "ugly chair make over."
I get the stop light revs all the time. When I choose to engage they are usually rather surprised at the results. And I'm still NA.
13 months of ownership and still have yet to be pulled over. *Knock on wood* If I was a betting man I would have lost the bet on when I expected to get my first ticket in this street legal go-cart.
Glad to see more options on the horizon!
