Premium Member hobbs Posted November 12, 2014 Author Premium Member Share Posted November 12, 2014 If that's what it takes to get some decent style. They can keep every fugly (and expensive) Victory ever made, do not want. Anything to rival Harley is cool too.. they've been asleep waaay too long. Everything went braap.

Premium Member crazycracka501 Posted November 13, 2014 Premium Member Share Posted November 13, 2014 My wife and I saw this bike online a few months ago and we both think it is really nice. I'd probably stay a Yamaha fan and go for the Stryker or Raider. I test rode the Stryker and that thing is deceivingly fast. The plush suspension really fools the brain into thinking "I'm not going that fast" until you look at the speedo. And for $12,000.00 or less, I know I'm getting a great product that is backed by a great company. Let's not forget, a really comfortable ride and perfectly responsive bike all the way around. http://www.2040motos.com/_content/cars/images/37/132637/001.jpg http://www.starmotorcycles.com/assets/products/mcy/media/vr/2014/2405/1/ZoomImages/14_RaiderSCL_1500-01.jpg Make it stop!....Now make it go faster!

voodoo Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 Seems like it: "In 2011 Polaris Industries purchased Indian Motorcycles and relocated operations from North Carolina, merging them into existing facilities in Minnesota and Iowa. Since August 2013, three motorcycle models that capitalize on Indian's traditional styling have been built under the Indian name." Like I said, Badge Engineered Victories. Not at all. Although they do share some parts with the Victory lineup, Indian is more or less its own company. Completely separate engineering, manufacturing, and marketing teams. The Indian engines and frames are completely new designs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cruizin Posted November 21, 2014 Share Posted November 21, 2014 I don't care if AMF came back under some form and built it, the Scout and some of Victory's other bikes are awesome and uniquely designed. Polaris builds some awesome machines in both dirt and snow. Do you know how many of those Ranger alone are sold every year? Their shares and profits have been deep for years now and they put a large percentage back into R&D.
