I wouldn't want to be on the same roads as those dudes. LOL
Some great comments and I agree with most of them, its not a motorcycle. Would rather spend my money on a new trike.

This design does nothing for me. Looks like a vehicle that has already been wrecked.

I wonder what it looks like from the rear, Most shots are from the front or sides...
They show Very few from the rear, Not like when ''J'' Low walks down the red carpet and they show both sides.. .......

I'll believe they are $25k when I see one on a dealers showroom floor for that!!
For the guy, who has everything!
Do I believe those prices? Nope, but I've been wrong before.
Local dealer here said they have been shipped to him and will have them the week of Thanksgiving. prices start at $19,999.

If you lend someone $20 and never see that person again, it was probably worth it.
I find this rather amazing for a base price, especially when trikes are going for 30K plus or minus depending on variables. Maybe I missed it, but I don't see much storage on this vehicle, could be a down side.
Texas decided this wasn't a motorcycle because the seat was wrong, and it doesn't meet automobile standards. So, no Slingshot for now in Texas.
An article http://www.autoblog.com/2014/11/13/t...-registration/
says the it needs a "saddle", which you sit astride, instead of a seat. Seems to me they could put a longer "horn" that comes forward between the drivers legs and that would meet the letter of the law. We'll see after the engineers do their thing, and especially when the lawyers and bureaucrats do the voodoo they do.

Texas isn't the only state to reject approval of the Slingshot. Add Indiana, Connecticut and Maryland to that list as well. Polaris has been making deliveries in some states with a few owners picking them up.
I'm still waiting for my dealer to call but heard thru the forums mine may not be delivered till January. Probably just as well since winter has arrived but could add on goodies while waiting for spring to return. I'd like to trailer it south for a week or more after the holidays too.
