Some good points there Bob, but as has been said before about these pricey new Indians, the "bread and butter" of the Harley line is the Sportster, and there isn't any $10,000 Indian Scout anywhere in their business plan, and so we're talkin' VERY limited production here.
And I'm not sure if you can compare OCC's success with this venture because OCC became a "media darling" and well known to the mass audience, and thus had the ability to not only charge more for their machines due to their fame, but also has made a whole heck of a lot of money through the licensing their brand name in the mass market.
Though I wish Indian a lot of luck here, I too just don't see them making a go of this for any length of time.
