You could get a SofTail pretty reasonably, and hang all the "Indian" tin off it, just like the "factory" did....no matter how you slice it, it's still just what it is, and not an Indian.

Personally, I'd hold out for a 1500. The 2001 Indian had loads of problems. The upside, its an S&S engine, engine parts would be available. If its REALLY cheap, I'd consider it, but would still be looking for a 1500.

Well I have been watching out for a 1500 in my neck of the woods and today I spot a 2001 Indian Chief for sale and now I am thinking about it.  Currently have an 800 and she has been serving me well and always puts a smile on my face but I have been thinking about doing some longer rides and an 800 and fat butt might not be the best solution.  By longer I mean - 1000 mile Iron Butt ride around lake Michigan in June, a trip to The Keys for vacation, etc...  Just thinking I need something bigger without giving up "the look".  So anyone out there have any experience with the Gilroy Indians or should I just hold for a 1500?
