Rumor says 18-24 months before we will see the Polaris version of Indian, best guess is the current design will continue for the 2011 model year. Polaris is not really saying anything on the future just yet; so since every one seems to be just guessing; How about an Indian ATV :o; maybe even an Indian snowmobile or Personel watercraft  ::) ;)

Guess that's right... I always plan for the worst, personally. I guess the real question is whether they plan to actually use the hardware, or simply the brand name. We will see, I guess.

Blessed are those who expect little, for they shall not be disappointed. Wonder what Polaris is going to do with all those modded blockhead engines and softail frames. :-\ ??? ;)  S&S here in LaCrosse has their buildings vacant and up for re-leasing.

 I am a pessimist by nature. It is, after all, the wisest way to be. We pessimists have everything to gain, whereas optimists have a fifty-fifty chance of being disappointed. ;D

griz, you're a pessimist.  8)  I'm a cynic so I guess we're a matched set... was just trying to see the silver lining in this cloud!

I hope it works out never really like the look of the victoy's , but I like the ride and the 6 speed trans. If they can build an Indian for around 18 to 20 thounds they should have a winner.

This is really cool, I agree Chief Polaris makes nice stuff and keeps the prices reasonable. It will be interesting to see how that changes the cost of the Indians.

Polaris has purchased Indian! Now this is interesting. I love the Drifter... but it will eventually be an old bike and I will want to buy another bike. Indian is way too expensive. Polaris is known for making good bikes at reasonable prices... So we could be seeing a more affordable Indian in the next few years.
