Sure wish my dad hadn’t sold his Scout after rebuilt it. but when the kickstand broke and it threw him in the ditch and he went on a carnival ride only hitting the seat when the bike came up to meet him… the bike was sold the next week !!!
baggerdude I am pretty sure you will find it more than good. Polaris has taken the revival of this revered brand to a whole new level. Their efforts are light years ahead of any of the attempts that have been made since Indian died in 1953.
Polaris spent mucho dinero hyping a product that they will not show, but making Teresa Doan very happy with the money they spent at Dirty Harry’s. Polaris is the P.T.Barnum of the motorcycle industry. It’s way past time to either put up or shut up.
Rodent ridicule himself. Of course the new Indian is coming. Of course it will be a success. All what they have done until now (engine) was the right thing to do. Including the teasing campaign.
Only question now is… Which Model? Which Color? How much Leather?
FOUR months to go ’till Sturgis!!
Then the only question will be how long until S&S, V/H, Power Commander, Cobra, Kuryakyn, etc all jump on board with accessories, pipes, cams, etc to take that TS 111 Torque Monster to the next level and add more personalization to the overall bike.
Rodent to be fair Polaris has only had around 2 years to develop an all new motorcycle from the ground up which falls short of the usual development cycle of 3-5 years. I don’t believe The new Indian model is even fully refined yet to show to the public.
This is great stuff. Some wont like it such as a medic a mouse and a louse. Good poison
I really need to get to Daytona one of these years…

After all this hype it
better be good and not just another warmed up repeat of past Indian attempts to break in to the market place.
Amazing what one can do with capital…Polaris resources may well allow this iconic
brand to thrive long term.

It would be neat if a person at the Indian factory would photograph with their cellphone the new bike and send it to someone like Cyril!
@Rodent, that would be cool, but would probably immediately lead to a job opening at the Indian factory!
Now we are talking DNA and culture !
Commitment to the brand will bring loyal Riders (:-)
