    I reckon they will sell plenty of ‘em, especially if they don’t get greedy on price.

    Make an exhaust that looks half decent and I'm in. Even a decent accessory exhaust.

    The new Indian has always been a fashion company that sells motorcycles based on a history they've had nothing to do with. With the FTR and it's 750 racer stablemate's flat track successes, It could be selling real motorcycles that have made their own reputation.

    I want the "Wall of Death" Special...

    I like the look of the new Harley Street Fighter and the Indian prototype looks even better (but prototypes without all the road legal shit always do).  I'm not really the target market for either though...

    Funnily they were in the running at one stage last year to purchase Ducati but withdrew from the deal

    Poor spelling is everywhere now. It's far from unusual.

    I think that's stretching it a bit. They do both have 2 wheels though.

    Looks ok, but I don't spend a lot of time looking at bikes. I like riding them, if they feel good I like them. I think a mate of mine must have got one to road test ( journo ) as said would not keep his licence long with one. so must be fun. to me looking at the frame & the headers looks close to a Ducati 1200 monster. I like the Ducati Monster ( to ride!! )
    Just a bit of history, Harley men in old day's Hated Indians thought they where rubbish . I used to talk to old Jack at Redfern Motor Cycles & Lee Brothers at Parramatta they all said Harleys were the best & did not think much of Indians.

    Then the movie comes out & your all excited by the name. but sadly no push rods.
