You don't realy think this is the finished product, do you?
I'll bet it's pretty close to how the final product will appear, Kevin.

Anyway, we already know it will have dual exhaust, not 2 into 1.
I don't know that. How do you? I mean, all we've seen so far is the engine and the headers coming out of it. And remember, the classic postwar Indian Chiefs had a 2 into 1 exhaust, and so I would think Polaris would try to mimic that also.

August 3 we'll all know for sure what it will look like. On August 4, the lucky ones will be riding them at Sturgis.
Absolutely!
The line of the rear fender isn't as long as shown in the silhouette on the Indian web site. Naturally, we're expecting a machine with full fenders that will be very "Indian" but a heck of a lot prettier than this drawing.
I'm also thinking the shocks are all wrong. I expect a single internal air shock like the Vision and Cross bikes have.
As far as the exhaust, if you look at this video HERE at the 31 second mark you'll see there's a pipe on the left side which indicates dual exhaust. One thing Polaris/Victory learned from making bikes is that by having dual exhaust you can make saddle bags deeper.
THREE days now to the reveal.
