This group needs to document the various "firsts" when the Slingshots (finally) hit the dealers.

The obvious "first first" is first to take delivery.

Others include:
* first to get a ticket (bonus points if it's on a test drive lol)
* first to top $2k in mods
* first to burn through a back tire
* first to ??????

• First to break 10,000 miles

first to get a ticket (bonus points if it's on a test drive lol)

I heard a rumor that most of the engineers that were driving these on the road for testing had gotten tickets already.

Polaris don't have some speed test track!

Wouldn't surprise Me to much. I'm sure
These will catch the eye of officers for a while. They will see this coming from a mile away in traffic. Some may even pull you over
Just to see what it is. May say another reason. But if there a motor head like most of us. There going to be curious!

A friend made an pretty long and noisy burn in hot spot downtown Montréal last summer and just when he finish is burn he see two bike cops look at him, so he think that's it...here come the tickets!

So one cop make a move to stop with is hand, so my friend stop the T-Rex and the cops take his phone and take a picture!! The other one had thumbs up!

But i know police in USA was most stiffer than us!

I will never make a fool in USA ... I do not want to come back home by bus!

 

[3wheeledrollercoaster]

lol, there are some cool cops here. Just matters on what one you get!

I totally agree with 3wheel on this! I fully expect being pulled over for a look-see. That's why I'm going to print out and carry with me the Dept of Transportation web page that explains why I don't need a motorcycle license... cuz you know they have to ask to see your license.

Chief of police lives on my street. He'll certainly want to see it when I go by (like everyone else... duh). I'll stop and show off to him... and have a quick chat about the license thing. That way he can back me up if one of his subordinates disagrees about my lack of endorsement.


Another first: first to cause a rubber-necker to have an accident (hopefully NOT involving the SS)

First to get asked a really stupid question (do all 3 wheels turn?)

"Stupid Questions" is destined to become a thread all on its own. Can't wait to hear what everyone experiences with this... lol :wacky:

 

[Tango]

I was pulled over in my Shelby one night for "going too slow" since I was going 42 in a 50mph. The last question he asked was how much horsepower it had.

I don't mind talkin about the car but my time doesn't need to be wasted just to bs on the side of the road. Go to Cars and Coffee Saturday morning, the Chick-fil-A Friday evenings, or the local car shows and I would be happy to talk all about it otherwise keep catching the bad guys please.

Unfortunately I have a bad feeling this will continue with the SS though. Such will be the Rock Star life of the SS owner.

First to get a no-helmet ticket

Not sure if I am attracted to the Slingshot in that way but whatever floats your boat Heffa.



Sorry Heffa, I couldn't resist!
