Polaris Slingshot Specs And Mods: Best Bang For The Buck 

This is my daily commuter. Being in California, dealing with hills, traffic and my personal unlucky red-light catching voodoo magic... im glad I went with the Automatic. (Get manual if you're just trying to have fun though. You'll have more control over it.)

I bought the 2021 R and love it. I drive it 3 to 4 times a week. I don't expect a race car but the machine sure is a eye catcher and is a blast to drive.

Literally just bought a 2021 R in same colorway. $40,000 out the door fully loaded. HotCars is correct you don't need an R. If you're in the market buy a used S. You will not be satisfied for $40k but will be COMPLETELY satisfied for $20k.

Thank you for the video been looking into these a ton recently and this was the exact video I was looking for!

Great rundown. Thanks!

I have the exact same model and I'm enjoying mine

Awesome video! Thank you man subbed and thumbs up

Good input interesting 😎👍

Manual is the way. You just got a new follower 😆

Great vid. I am purchasing soon and knowledge is king....

THERE ARE NO WORDS TO EXPRESS MY SINCERE APPRECIATION MEMORABLE UNFORGETTABLE. People will forget what you did. People will forget what you said. But people will never forget how you made them feel, but I must say your video made me feel good. I got so excited I drove four (4) hours to buy a 2021 Polaris Slingshot S with Technology package one, Wind deflector and Auto drive Security system black and white in color, thanks so much for sharing and making my day, I’m the happiest man in the town, I made my dream a reality, I stopped dreaming and started driving, I’m really enjoying the hot summer days now, I love my new toy, Simply the best Second 2 None A Game Changer A Show Stopper.

O yeah I want one with four wheel kit and very healthy LS V8 six speed manual that would be a true rocket ship

HotCars actually the Slingshot S also has Kenda tires, the only difference is the width on the S model is 255 in the rear, and 225 in the front.

I buy one..it's manual transmission ❤️back up camera too..vision is important 🤓

Thank you for this video, it is very informative. I just bought a new Slingshot S after owning motorcycles since the 1960's. My wife has battled cancer eight times and between the csncer, the surgeries and the treatments she is now crippled and can no lonher get on a motorcycle. But she can fall into the Slingshot and I help her back out. My Slingshot is a five speed and the only upgrade I'm thinking of is to add a tailpipe along side the transmission to allow the noise to exit out the rear of the vehicle with a turn down at the rear. We can't hear each other while riding in our Slingshot because of the loudness of the exhaust. I think a tailpipe will cure that problem. It will still sound good, but the sound will exit in the the rear allowing us to talk to each other. I will not buy the after market exhaust kits because they eliminate the muffler. I am not out to make my Slingshot louder, it has a great exhaust note the way it is. I just want the noise out the rear so we can talk to each other.

The only Michelin Pilot sport tire that comes close is the 315/35/20 Michelin pilot sport 4 and its around 537.89. Not a couple hundred bucks as you stated in your video. Now you can get a Michelin pilot sport zp-s for 412.55

I have the 2017 SLR. Bought the LedGlow lights to put on. Need some guidance on the installation...love mine tho...traded my harley trike in for it

P.S.- as of now there isn’t an aftermarket turbo or supercharger for the Prostar engine but there will be.

The R comes with Brembo 4 piston brakes right? Isn’t that a huge brake upgrade/difference?

Try one with the pedal commander, IT WILL CHANGE THE WHOLE EXPERIENCE!

I like the automatic. 63 years old.

You are exactly right! By the time you add some basic stuff on there, like a top which is three grand and a few things added,you are looking at 45 to 50 grand! I think the top should be included and better wheels and seats. The motorcycle is all plastic! The 35 grand for the R doesn’t justify the money!

You need to check into brake upgrades from other sources. Over $1000 per wheel for brakes is overpriced. Other sources have complete brake systems for about $200 a wheel. Not only does it brake better, but the brakes have a better feel. Most Slingshot only parts providers see Slingshot owners as owners who will spend any amount on accessories for their "baby". Usually the price is way higher than the equivalent for autos or cycles. Many are poor design and do little to improve on the stock components. A good example is headers. The ones I have seen have poor quality welds. The one I used, I had to "port on it for about 2 hours (fortunately I was able to do this}. The cold air intake used an air cleaner which hit the hood. I had to buy a K and N filter to replace it. The exhaust systems are a toss up. Unless you change the tuning, you will not improve rear wheel horsepower. If you are just buying for looks or a louder sound, you're good, but many are over $1000, and there just isn't a thousand bucks there. Again, buyer beware and shop around.

They do make a 4 wheel conversion that keeps it street legal

You had to yse your 🦶 lol

1. there is NOT a turbo or supercharger option for your year slingshot or any model with the prostar engine (2020 and up). There will never be a supercharger option for the prostars. It's not possible. 2. There IS a 4-wheel upgrade kit

You do not need a helmet in California unless single driver using carpool. From what I understand. If you use it as a a motorcycle to carpool with only 1 person you need helmet. If you have 2 people carpool no helmet also, one person not in carpool no helmet.

0mg poptart

$6000 conversion for 2 rear wheels

Not a car, NJ you need a motorcycle license
