Now that's an interesting question. Polaris seems to be competing with themselves.

Perhaps they intend to market to different groups, with Victory being more forward, think Vision, and Indian going for the retro vibe.



From what I remember, that was the plan. Think Yamaha/Star - even though they share a dealer network.

Victory and their dealers (which are usually multi-line already) were to be freed up to go more extreme under the Polaris banner. Can-Am & Slingshot to start. If all goes to plan, in a few years, Indian should be poised to compete directly w/ H-D as a stand alone company with dedicated dealers.

The parent company will then get two bites of the apple.
