Beautiful showroom! Your bikes are very well presented. It's hard to choose just one bike when they're all so damn gorgeous! In the end I had chosen a 2017 Chieftain Limited in Silver Smoke wirh many extras. Even my Harley riding friends admire my Indian, which they never thought that they would.
X-Cellent presentation! You have a fine line of bikes to choose from. That would probably be the hardest part, they're all beautiful! All the best to you and your dealership.....Art
My friend has a roll master and my other friend is going to buy his bike this week and it's a Indian Chieftain Limited he is getting that Springfield blue I guess that's what they call it. And I'm going to be next I'm going for the red one Chieftain limited as well but I'm still going to keep my Harley-Davidson V-Rod
@Wile E Coyote I loved everything about my Dark Horse, except the rusting fenders. If you join the Indian forums you'll find plenty of rust complaints.
I've always road Harley Davidson bikes but I'm tempted to try out an Indian Chief. They look good but I hope they addressed the paint issues they were having?
Hi Guys.... nice video ... but my thoughts are more going to the Indian Scout (like the one on the podium in the background blue/white) would be a great help loading up an intersting video about ... to help me out getting more introduced to that one... fyi. had a test drive with the Bobber ... was ok but I would rather go for a Scout or Sixty want to have a siisy bar and passenger seat as well (y better half would appreciate that ;-) thx.
I talked to Indian and they didn't want to give me squat for my 2016 Heritage Classic. Lists from 12 - 19k on NADA and they with with 10k. Gotta call BS on that. only has 7600 miles and only one small scratch.
Call me if you like. I would like to find out more details on your bike and how feasible it would be for me to get it to our store. Gary Latessa Spartan Cycle 586-684-3372
unfortunately I live in Alabama. I really do like the Classic I was looking at but like I said they just don't want it to happen. It's all good though. Some dealers think more of their bikes and less of others. I'm not hating but sure would have liked to have had that bike though. The Heritage is great though so thanks.
Indian called me and wanted to take a better look at my Heritage. So I let them. They kept it an hour and a half and then offered 12K. I am not one of those who think my bike is worth 20K but crap I know it at least worth 15 or 16. Wish I could get to your place. Maybe some day I will have to drive up there.
Trade in on your bike is $12,300 according to KBB, so that's about right for them to hit you a little lower, they go by auction prices not trade in. If they offered you 12k for your bike and you like the Indian I would take it, that's a fair trade offer considering I just sold a year newer Limited for 6k more than their offer to you for a Softail. You are correct retail on your bike is 15k but you aren't going to get that for trade in on it, that's what they will sell it for after giving you 12k. If you want 15k for it then you will need to put it on Craigslist and it still won't bring that. People on Craigs are looking for a deal, if they have to pay retail most will just go buy a new one at the dealership. I agree though, I just sold my Limited and would love to have an Indian.
Polaris bought the Indian brand name back in 2011 or 2013. They even killed the victory motorcycle line to put more money into Indian. With Indian's expanding lineup, I don't think this iteration is going anytime soon
You get way more chrome and "extras" standard on Indians than with H-D. With H-D you can easily double your investment with accessories. I've been there! (TWICE)
Harley could take a lesson from Indian on how to design a bike. Notice how the Indian has a leather bib on the gas tank for the seat to rest upon so it doesn't mar your paint job. Harley just lays that seat right up on the gas tank and it will rub the paint right off especially if you have denim paint. Not to mention the tour pack the way the passenger back rest lays into the paint. It will rub it right off. Indian's never touches it the way it's designed. Come on Harley send your engineers over to Indian so they can get educated.
Love the Amazing Indian motorcycles !!!
Great Job Jerry! I love my 2018 Springfield!
Beautiful! Love those Indians! They just get better and better!

Frank Muniz The V-Rod Is an amazing Harley! Keep that thing forever.
Gorgeous. Only hang up is an issue I heard about fender corrosion. I don't know that to be a fact but it concerns me
It's a fact. Had a '16, fenders rotted in 9 months, never saw bad weather. Replaced, started rotting again in 3 months. Got rid of it at a huge loss.
@Wile E Coyote I loved everything about my Dark Horse, except the rusting fenders. If you join the Indian forums you'll find plenty of rust complaints.
Did they fix their rust issues yet?

I'll take the Darkhorse with passenger pillion and backrest, passenger footboards saddlebags and 16"Apes. Add a highway bar and I am good to go. 👍

Please can you tell me who play the music in this video
I can see a Royal Enfield Himalayan and classic
You can add the Nav to the Steel Gray Chieftain for $500.00 can't you?
Yes you can. Although you may want to have a dealer install it.

sounds good .... what about when they go out of business again and again and again?
