My granddaughters are grown and have their own daughters. One is a dentists office mgr. Two is a waitress, three is a stripper at the beach and four is dumb as a stump and collects a check for being stupid.

Friend of mine has one ... a 2014 I think. It caught fire a month or so ago.... apparently a gas tank weld failed and leaking gas ignited. Damage repaired under warranty.

Other than that he loves the bike.

Anybody else have fire problems?

Polaris says What fire ? It took awhile to force them to do something. I here Polaris may start providing fire EXT with everything they sell. Their ATV have a habit of going up in flames.

The Dealer network,and support by the Company, are Pitiful.. especially when they took the time to create a pretty good product... Cheap made... but pretty nice.

Ours was a bit Pricey, dressed this way... but, My Bitter Half, will have no other...

Looks great, Hannigan does some cool stuff. They built my Sidecar also.

No question that the Indian is a beautiful bike. If they had a decent dealer network they might have something. There are 7 HD dealers within 50 miles of me and I live in the sticks. Truth is I have only been in the dealer twice and both times I had to order an object and then go back for it. Better to get it from Denniskirk so it comes to my door.

I like the cool fenders on the Indian, but it looks difficult to change a tire.

You make a Good Point as far as the amount of Dealerships , not sure how far you are from Charlotte but it's known as one of the better ones, maybe even the The Best .. Tire is really not any harder to change than on a HD in some cases easier because of Right Hand Belt Drive ..

We were gonna have a Hannigan no matter the Tug... We did ... in fact, have a very nice RoadGlide picked out... but, this Indian was Much less expensive.. Gotta at least give it a Chance for the $$ Difference.. and the Style is undeniably attractive!!

I had it narrowed down to the Heritage or the twin classic.
twin classic won out for the flip up top. No denying the heritage looks great on the Indian.
This is how I watch two Grandchildren on a no school day .
