Just smile and say thank you. They wouldn't know it from a '53 Chief, anyway. How can you define a "real Indian" ? Are the ones being made today "real" or are they just clones...From what I can see, the only "real" ones came from Massachusetts.

Well, you should just say "yes, it is", since you've added all that Indian stuff... so you asked for it! ;)

 :o Depends on the person, sometimes you just have to nod and say "right". Some people will tell you that it is not a real Indian, then act all surprised and tell them you paid for an Indian....and watch their faces. But most times your right you say no it is a Drifter a Kawasaki Drifter......and they wander off.....so get used to it....

With nice weather, I'm getting out on my Drifter 800 much more often. At many gas stations, rest stops, lunch breaks, etc. I get non-riders asking "is that an Indian?" or the comment " nice Indian. " ( I have the after-market Indian features, including the Indian head tank decals and Indian head fender ornament.) What do you say?  I've tried "it's a Drifter," but they glaze over and wander off. I'm thinking of just saying "Isn't it great?"
