Congrats on the new ride. Jeez, Victory and Indian imho negate even thinking about Milwaukee iron. Harley? omg!
Ahh, the two copy cat V-twins. So starting with a clean sheet why did Victory build their entire line on V-twin engines when they could have used parallel twins a design which everyone here knows is superior to the V for air cooled engines? And Indian...it would have been more uniquely Indian to build in-line 4-cylinder engines for their new bikes like their classic 402.
But no, both of the Polaris brands played "follow the leader" just another Harley V-twin copy like the Japanese cruisers. Something I appreciated about Triumph was the company staying true to their heritage with parallel twin and triple engines.
That's a good point OB, especially considering one of Indian's most famous and now one of THE most sought after models by collectors are the Indian-4s.
Ya know, there is a company presently making a sort of an updated Indian-4 called the "Dakota". It's a rather strange looking bike with rather odd proportions, but I'll bet Polaris could design one that would come out lookin' a lot better.
Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)
