![]() Unfortunately, if you all of a sudden want a little more get up and go around a corner – or when your coworker tells you to light up the rear tire for his little girls – you’ll be waiting even longer for the lethargic transmission to do its thing. I ended up leaving the Slingshot in comfort mode around town just to keep the ride smoother. ![]() Once you get used to the fact that you’re just along for the ride while the transmission lazily does what it wants, you can start to enjoy the Slingshot SL. It’s pretty difficult to see what’s behind you while seated in the Slingshot so this was a welcome feature. The 7-inch screen also displays what’s behind you when in reverse thanks to the handy back-up camera. Two pages include specific vehicle and trip information (much of which can also be seen on the LCD dash) while the other three display Bluetooth connected phone options, music, and (if equipped) navigation. The center-mounted 7-inch Ride Command display will look familiar to those who’ve used the display on Indian touring bikes and provides loads of info spread across five pages. The redesigned interior includes a new LCD dash in between analog speedo and tach dials, that offers plenty of standard information to scroll through like trip meters, fuel stats, voltage, ambient and engine temps, odo, etc. With that said, I found myself using some of the 2020 updates everytime I drove the machine. I don’t have any experience with the previous generation of Slingshot aside from a passing glance on the rare occasion I’d see one in the wild – meaning this is also my first hands-on experience with the cockpit.
