They are Baaaack

Paying Homage?

Given their recent record, this doesn't seem like a prudent choice.


A most dubious business venture, IMO. That would not be the first time for the glorious Indian brand name, alas. A web site and artist drawings don't make up for a marketable motorcycle, even less so @ 35 grands for an elusive "may vary" copy. Jamie:cool:
 
Hasn't the Harley wannabe V Twin market just been beat to death? If this had been launched 20 years ago it might have had a chance. I think you are about to see some grown men cry when they loose their a$$......
 
There were no Harleys allowed!!!!!

The truly sad thing is that the original was a great motorcycle. It was the only bike my Father would ever ride. I don't know how many miles I have spent on the back of an old Chief as a kid, but I think that is where my passion for bikes started. True story, my Dad was sitting in the old tin sided garage/shed revving an old Indian Chief when the clevis pin in the suicide clutch mechanism snapped. Straight through the back of the garage he went. It wasn't bad except for the fact the chicken coop was attached to the rear of the building. We had chicken for dinner for a few days in a row. Up until my Mother left this earth years ago she always reminded the Old Man of that day, every chance she got.
 
Britman, I had a friend when I was a kid (way back when) who's father had an old Indian and for the longest time he though his dad started the bike by jumping up and down on the seat because his dad was short and every time he kicked it over his but would hit the seat and it looked like he was jumping up and down in it.
Man the child hood memories.
