The New Indian Motorcycle By Polaris. Moving Away From The Chief To A New Scout Or Bobber Type Model?


Recommended Posts

Interesting, but all talk with NO facts. Nice for generating contact to fill a blog, not so good for actual info.

I go with a crotch rocket and we make Rosie ride it.I don't think even polaris would make a entry level bike for the first model. Limited market, and low profit, but what do I know, I had two different soxs on today.

Oh yeah Blu, nice application of scientific inquiry! When you read stuff like this you should have Joe Friday's ghost whispering in yer ear,"just the facts" cause the real deal is only Polaris knows, and they ain't telling.

 

Now a Rosie,Hasbin, Micmac, race? Let's sweeten the pot. Ol Thunder, CKelly,Uplander and Badndn now that would be a race. Not for speed, think of it as a "Diners,Drive Ins and Dives" on two wheels. Who could find the best eatng places wins.

It's gettin' to be I don't care any more . . . it will be what it will be and no amount of speculation is going to matter . . . except to those few who make the right prediction or close to to it . . . and they can have all the "I told you so" honors they want.

Am I the only one troubled by the fact that the two less than positive Indian motorcycles topics on this forum have been started by a person that doesn't even own or ride an Indian Motorcycle according to his personal data? Could just be sensitive me.

I'm with you & Micmac on this, It's like the Germans from S.A.P. told us @ work. You vill like it & you Vill use it. or not. Although I am hopeful that Polaris will hit the first ball out of the park.

Thanks Micmac. Everyday in my work someone tries to obsure the facts with huge heaping piles of bullshit. I actually get paid to wade thru the stuff. What amazes me is that when I show the bullshitter that what they are showing me will attract flies, they actually get mad that I dont believe their crap. Happens every time.

I guess that would be me. I seriously didn't think it would be such a controversial a topic. I've been hoping the new Indian would come out with a new Scout soon, so it seemed like great news to me & just thought I'd share it. I was actually shopping around for a preowned scout & was debating if I should wait to see if they will come out with a new version. Sorry, I had no idea it would have such a bad reaction.

imo. It's a little thing called freedom. All opinions are welcome within reason. I stop for any biker in need, cept hd.

 

I'm with you on that one except I also stop for hd but I insist on duct tape for them to reduce audible sounds and ear plugs for me. :nod:

Not a bad reaction, just a normal reaction from some of us, a lot because of Cyril Huze. don't you go gettin thin skin too, I for one am glad you posted the link, And one more thing, Wait on the new release from INDIAN, I think you will be glad you did, if not you can still pick up a Garlic for a good price

Cool. Good point.

Half the fun of Cyril's posts on Indian is reading the comments, and figuring out which online handle goes with which of 'the usual suspects'(read: usual pack of idiots).

 

It's usually pretty easy.

 

As far as Cyril's post...I think there will be a new model, Scout or whatever, ...but there'll be an new model Chief, too.

Actually I was speaking more about the post you made regarding what motor was used in the movie letting us know it was a Ducati made motor. Sensative maybe, your still talking about my Baby

Yeah right. I can hear it in the corporate boardroom now. "Hey...let's move away from what is possibly the most recognized Motorcycle model EVER produced."...The Indian Chief. "Let's do it right away...while people are skeptical about our ownership of the brand." People frikkin' amaze me with the things they say sometimes. They bought the rights for RECOGNITION.
