Any Indian riders out there?

I noticed there is a harley thread but didn't have a Indian thread. Since Indian was produced before Harley. Indian deserves some recognition. So if you have any pics or stories to tell about a Indian motorcycle. Please share them with everyone.

Also wanted to let any Indian owner know. Indian was bought by the guy that owns kriss kraft. They are planning to have the 09 model out by the end of this year. Maybe end of summer or early fall. I would put the link on here but I'm sure it would get removed.
indianmotorcycle <is the link

I am not an Indian owner but I would like to see them make a go of it this time around.

You put 10K down on the new model coming out? I thought they were only taking 1K at the moment? The model they are going to start producing is the Chief PP100 but its gonna be fuel injected.

The $10K reserve was what I thought (wrong?) it was last summer when I heard and looked into .There was a movie"Fastest Indain" out not all that long ago.I havent seen it yet.The bike in my photo is probably close to (or thee) the Fastest Indain.I will get the fever soon.

I would like to see them make a go of it but unfortunately they made alot of folks salty after the last stunt in 03. With all the quality issues that arised from them. They left alot of folks with issues and no warranties to turn to. I have talked to a few shops that got burnt from it. Now they want people to build million dollar show rooms. So i'm intereseted in how its gonna turn out.

One guy bought one as soon as CMC (Gilroy) started selling Indians with the Power Plus and he went though all the oil P/U service bullitens,ect and ended up getting a S&S replacement under warrenty.Last spring when I heard they were scrapping (auction) out the factory I never would have imagined a second resurection.

It's great to hear that Indian is coming back. We used to have a dealer near my house, and I went up there about a dozen times looking longingly at a beautiful black and gold Centennial Chief that they were selling for about $25,000. It was out of reach for me at the time, but some day I'd love to get one - especially if the company is back in business and parts are readily available.
