Every great idea always starts with a simple thought. For us, it all started with two very enthusiastic motorcyclists. The thought came one day after a long ride in the Mountains of California for some heart-wrenching twisties. After some food in the belly, like all good motorcyclists like to do, we stood there by our bikes in the parking lot to discuss the day's events. During our conversation, one thing led to another and it dawned on us that today's aftermarket parts were just down right too expensive. Like many riders, we desired to turn our bikes into something a world champ would ride but lacked the financial backing to do so. And that was when we asked ourselves, "Why can't there be a company that makes high-quality aftermarket parts for a reasonable price?" And that my friends, was the very thought that gave birth to The Slingshot Racing Corporation.
With a clear goal in mind, we set out to build a team that would support this "Great Idea". We knew in order to keep the quality high and cost down, some serious engineering would be required. Also, we knew that design and ergonomics were a big part of the appeal for aftermarket parts. After months of searching, we had out team. It was the complete dream package any starting company going into design and manufacturing would want. The team comprised of one material engineer, one mechanical engineer, one designer, and one project manager. After going through all of our life savings, we finally had our first product and I can proudly say that we were a bunch of happy-broke riders.
Now that you know our story, we at SSR would like to welcome you to this"Great Idea." Remember, we at The Slingshot Racing Corporation are here to serve you guys (the Riders) with an undying passion for high-quality and fair prices.
Always ride safe! |
