There are 48 states (that we know of) where the Polaris Slingshot is still classified as a "motorcycle." So many people are taking their deposits back, but I'm wondering why people are worried. Granted, if you live in Texas or Indiana, I could understand taking yourself off the waiting list. By why are people thinking so negatively? We knew Polaris was breaking out something special, and we knew nothing like it had yet been developed. This was going to be a battle from the start.
Polaris is stepping into new territory, as it has been for the past couple of months, with the acquisition of Indian Motorcycles (and the reintroduction of the Indian Scout), new off-road vehicles (including the Ranger Crew 900-6, Polaris ACE 570 SP and RZR 170 EFI), the acquisition of ATV accessories brand Pro-Armor (news as of yesterday), a brand-new partnership with Costco, and a defense contract with the US Army. Polaris has a proven track record of success and innovation.
I have faith that Polaris will continue to impress.
Yes, there is a speed bump on the road that Polaris has to figure out how to get over; but Polaris has shown us time and again that they can handle it. More than handle, I'd say.
