Carbon_One Posted August 17, 2014 Share #26 Posted August 17, 2014 (edited) Sure am glad you stated your new ride I was doing good keeping my lips sealed but B2Mom on the other hand Gonna love seeing you and Joyce in that beast ! Gotta ask ? you need MC license for this beast? I'm figuring you do since their called trikes Yes you'll need both a helmet and /or a MC endorsement for these due to being classified as motorcycles per your state regulations concerning motorcycles in general. In short whatever rules your have on motorcycles in you state applies to these as well. Larry Edited August 17, 2014 by Carbon_One Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wrench Posted August 17, 2014 Share #27 Posted August 17, 2014 Yeah Larry, we do become attached to our rides, I've hated to see each one of mine go too. Congrats on the Slingshot! I haven't saw one in person, but they do look roomier for the passenger than a Stallion, not a lot of room to move around on it. I'm sure your mechanical wizardry will come up with some goodies for it too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hummingbird Posted August 17, 2014 Share #28 Posted August 17, 2014 nice 'bike' Larry but if I was going to sit IN something I would prefer the '55' or '56' behind you in the first picture Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowpuc Posted August 17, 2014 Share #36 Posted August 17, 2014 Gonna miss going to E.S. due to the new owner flying in that weekend to ride the bike home. It'll be both a happy and sad day when he leaves the driveway on the gal. Whatever I'm sure its going to a good home. If fact the soon to be new owner is a current member here but I'll let him make the announcement. This past weekend my son & I went to the Detroit Dream Cruise and while there I spotted my next trike. Finally seeing one in the flesh so to speak as before hand all I saw of them were pics. Having already dropped a deposit two weeks ago with some apprehension on one and now seeing it in person convinced me I'm making the right decision. Without further ado my next trike will be a Polaris Slingshot SL in red. I had also given the Motor Trike Stallion some consideration but went this route instead for at least a couple reasons. More room for the passenger and between $5 & 10k more depending on new or used. Polaris isn't delivering them to the dealers until the end of Sept or early Oct.so the waiting begins. All that out there for now are the demos. Larry BTW: You all are still stuck with me cause I'm not going anywhere. This is my biker home till I get kicked out. I'm still going to offer the items that I make for the Ventures too. Who knows what if anything I'll find to make for these Slingshots. Larry,, THAT is awesome my friend!! GORGEOUS piece of work!! Cant wait to see it in person!! CONGRATS LARRY!! Puc Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marcarl Posted August 17, 2014 Share #37 Posted August 17, 2014 Told Marca that maybe we pulled the trigger too early, but we is sure happy with what we have. Hope it goes well for you two, I'd say it kind of fits. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carbon_One Posted August 17, 2014 Share #38 Posted August 17, 2014 Know what you mean on pulling the trigger too soon. I had looked at the 2014 Can Am's but couldn't decide plus we looked at the Motor Trike Stallions so when this Slingshot popped up I was all over it. Even to the point of selling the bike before actually seeing one in the flesh. After checking one out last weekend I do feel this machine is going to be a good fit for us.

Barrycuda Posted August 18, 2014 Share #40 Posted August 18, 2014 Larry, That is one bad ass ride!!! Looks like the batmobile! You and Joyce already know you couldn't leave the forum even if you wanted. Too many people would be parked outside you're front door Congrats on an amazing piece!!!
