I just got back into riding recently when i got my Spyder 6 weeks ago and Im having fun with it, however in my new appreciation of motorcycles i came across the Indian line and they are some sharp bikes! Im tempted to pull the trigger this winter on a Vintage or Springfield. Wife says i can have 2 bikes so Im excited
Is there a 2 wheel out there that causes you to do a double take and consider getting it?
You are one lucky person. If my health was good enough to heft another nine hundred pounder, I would have one in a heart beat. Indians are good stuff and they continue to refine the product.
Currently Owned: 2019 F3 Limited, 2020 F3 Limited: SOLD BOTH LIMITEDS in October of 2023.
Back in the day when I did dirt bikes I had a Bultaco 250 Alpina and a Rokon 340 RTII. Now that I'm an old fart I went back to Old School, Honda CB1000. Nice and light and it's a ball on twisty back roads. Picked up a 2014 left over for a killer deal. Honda still has some in stock. Keep the Spyder for touring. 2014_1_393333_black.jpg

Give me a holler: I'll be happy to float some numbers out there for you!
Thanks,
I have a few extras on it like:
custom made handlebars that are 8" longer than stock,
Avon grips,
custom mounted Cree LED running lights,
Russell Daylong seat,
Utopia backrest,
Valkyrie Interstate side bags with custom made mounts,
custom windshield,
semi-custom made highway boards. I made part of the brackets to bring the boards closer to me,
custom made passenger back rest,
I switched out all the chrome bezels for black ones.
I did all the custom work myself.
Next, I am going to powder coat the valve covers and forks black this winter. I just love customizing my rides. Makes them unique.
.....I have a 2014 Valkyrie in black. It is a great bike, but the seat sucked really bad..
All the Hondas I had b4 switching to dom had hard as heck seats. I'd lay down on the cement at gas stops to feel something softer under my bones. Had Mean City Cycles add some fluffy gel softener to my seat on my 750, then I could ride all over the country.
The Indian bikes are really pretty, but I have the tryke I want right now.

How about this? My husbands 2015 Christmas gift from me (for the next decade or so). A 2016 Indian Roadmaster in Blue Diamond with custom artwork. This really makes me consider riding on two again, but a 1993 head on collision (I walked away, my custom BMW K75LT was totaled) keeps me on three. I do not think I will ever ride on two..... still, this beauty sometimes gives me pause.

That's whats up. Your wife is a keeper as well. Be sure to post it up when you get it , so will i
With a 'Wing: it's already pretty easy to get yourself a heel-toe shifter...
I'm thinking that a much lighter two-wheeler, that I don't have to worry about shifting: might just be a ton of fun!

yes she is a great little girl. i'm looking at the scout 69 w/ABS, dark read, passenger seat & back rest, windshield,
hwy bars and mini apehanger handlebar & oh yea the leather saddlebags. the w/rack is still the bike for
trips & vacation but the indian will be the city bike.

I really like the Springfield also and now you know Harley has come out with their revamped engine, Milwaukee 8. A couple of my friends have the loaded bagger Victory's and they are nice also.
I only have the room for one more bike and that one will be an RT for the wife... but I like a few bikes that are out there.. always wanted a Honda Repsol 1000 or 600 no matter.
i like the scout also, bit i feel it is a little small for my size
I picked up a matte silver Scout last year whilst in the Upper Peninsula of MI. It didn't need any more zip, but I added some less restrictive mufflers, a better breathing air cleaner and a fuel controller. I do enjoy embarrassing most of the other Vtwin riders. It's great fun! I'm 6 ft/230 and I like how it handles. The only thing I don't like about it and pretty much any cruiser/bagger on the market today, is the position of the footpegs. I m used to mid-controls. Any controls that are forward throws me off balance when maneuvering at low speeds. The rear shocks are trash and need replacing. I hope Indian does something about those shocks on future models.
