Maybe they bought them to simply be the other American motorcycle company. Maybe they don't want another iconic name out there with Harley unless they own it. With the money Polaris has buying Indian was a drop in the bucket just to own the name.
I think they will keep the Indian lines. I don't think they expect to sell very many. I don't think they care to sell very many. They are still around 10,000 units or less a year with Victory. Just a small little fraction of the money Polaris makes. As long as its in the black Victory will keep making bikes. They are not under-capitalized by a long shot.
