Does anybody have a Polaris Slingshot? (request for opinions)

[Joe13]

Being as off-road folk are usually much more mechanically inclined, I figure your opinions would be much more “real world”, than just the basic automobile or street bike reviewer.

Since it's his forum seems like he's reinforcing the notion this is not the place to come for answers

I enjoy it. Sorry for the slow response. Been a busy past 7 weeks on the road.

I don't have a ton of miles on them but I've done some good day runs and it's a blast in the mountains and back roads. I still feel pretty awkward in town as I am not one who likes the attention you attract in the slingshot. But it's fun.

I added Walker Evans Slingshocks to one and I love them. Huge improvement over stock. I also plan to upgrade to bigger wheels and tires. Looks better and seems to feel more stable. They handle pretty damn good., you forget it's only 3 wheels.

Brakes need improving. Bigger brakes make a huge difference especially if going to bigger wheels. Little things here and there are good to improve. Seats suck and your back gets instantly sweaty. Needs better stereo.
