you never know? I thought about Indian & test rode a couple of their models - but they have many problems along with polarass customer service - No Thanks.

Ill stick with HD & in time I'm sure they'll get the bugs worked out, hey maybe they already have? as well when the after market kicks in - well lets say ill be there & no doubt own an M8 heritage or roadglide?

Either way ride safe & have a good Holiday BigRed117

Yep, but you could not see a thing out the back window.

Certain colors I liked, the convertibles I didn't think were as nice, yes the split window was deemed a classic but with out a lot of the options it was a homely turd.

The black with the hood vents, chrome package & wheel option is stunning, but tan (not sure the name of the color) not a big fan of it.

You could say that about any car in the wrong color

"Saddle tan" is what it was called. Not an inspired choice for a sporty car.

yes, and as the story goes the stylist who wanted it and fought like hell to make sure it launched agreed to get rid of it the next year, after he had actually driven one of them.
