    What do you think about 120 units to celebrate the 120 year anniversary?

      Indian Motorcycles has not been around 120 years. So How the heck can they have a 120 year anniversary? only 120 units just means it will be a rich mans bike. I am not a fan of limited production anything. It does look nice but I still think Harley baggers look better.

      It's custom paint. The rest sounds standard. Not worth THOUSANDS extra!!! Regular models come painted already.

      @@ellistomago3369 Just like H-D who went broke in 1969 and couldn't give the pile of crap away. No assets, tooling completely shot, a mountain of debt. If AMF hadn't pulled their downing rat ass out of the torrent and developed the Evo Hardley-Ableson would be an unpleasant memory. Admit it. You keep a bowling ball on the mantel and give praise to it, don't ya fan boy?

    A friend of mine bought a Chieftain this past fall. Though he kept his Harley, he parked it for that Chieftain. That Chieftain rides like a Cadillac. I test-rode a Chieftain. I guarantee it will turn a 3 hour ride into a 4 hour ride because you have to stop every few miles to get off the bike and let your ass laugh. 🤣 It will change your mind about a Harley.

    Good morning Mike thanks again for another good video and thanks for the help you've been giving me with my issues of what to even pick with all these new bikes out cause I saw that dark horse you told me about is something awfully nice from indian. Wish the best to you and your family Mike. On that bagger I like how they ran the pipes down under the bags from each side and the way the front ferring looks kicked back

    It's a good looking bike Mike, I noticed that rear cylinder head looked like it was in the frame tight, about a 1/4" in-between frame and the cylinder, it's definitely a sweet looking ride I think the only thing I would do is put a Harley Batwing fairing on,then it would look even sweeter 👊🏼😎

    Beautiful, but I am not one of those attention seekers that need to have a 1 in 120 limited run bike with that extra price tag just to show off at the local bike stops. A 2021 Indian Chieftain Limited or Dark horse will get me to the same place just a fast. At least the CVO version of the Street Glide offers a CVO only edition engine.

    Thanks for the video Mike. Let's see here. The original Indian company was 1901 to 1953. The attempts to revive the Indian name in the nineties and early 2000s were using Harley engine designs. Now we have the Polaris editions. Technically they are celebrating 60 years instead of 120. The thing that irks me about their motorcycles is the power switch on the dash/fuel tanks. It looks like the on/off button on my computer tower. For me it takes away from the vintage look they are trying to achieve. Indian still does not have a model with a 6 gallon fuel tank. My Road King isn't going anywhere.

    While nice looking I just don't consider thirty five thousand dollar motorcycles worth the expense, let alone Indian's which really don't hold their value. Then again I laugh at CVO models for similar reasons, its just paint and extra options out of a catalog that you don't get to choose
