- December 21, 2014, 10:58:55 AMI've got to the age now where no matter what I ride or drive I am not going to look cool, I've always liked the look of the Morgan 4+4 and would have liked one when I was in my 20's...It was my second favourite car.. the favourite was the Bentley 1932 open tourer..but I chose a more expensive option and got married and had kids.. I don't regret it, even when I see those old poofs driving nice sports cars..I could probably afford one now but I have no hair and my neck looks like the last turkey in the butchers shop the day after thanksgiving..

- December 21, 2014, 08:29:54 AMI really like the idea behind a cycle car, which these would technically be....The Slingshot us ugly, but the engineering seems sound...personally my choice would be either the T-Rex or the Morgan

The Indian's are cool though.

if you bought that trike for the Missus then I'll bet she would have let you have the bike you want.........too easy you just need to talk nicer to her.....
As for the slingshot that is Polaris's answer to the Spyder.......I think the Spyder is more bike then the slingshot....JMO

- December 20, 2014, 21:50:15 PMNow, on the way out of the parking lot, I saw this thing. I hope no one on here owns one of these, because I don't want to offend anyone, but I thought this was ugly. Evidently someone liked it, because this one was sold. I honestly cannot imagine cruising around in this.
I present to you.... The Polaris Slingshot....

The second pic is the only chance I have of owning a new Indian....

- December 20, 2014, 21:39:42 PMI took a day off work last week for a doctor's appointment, and to do some errands. While I was in town, thought I'd go over across town to Iron Pony, the local bike shop. In addition to selling tons of accessories, they've expanded into being a multi-brand dealer having several brands, and just recently adding Indian. They added a bunch of square footage in their show room and they have TONS of bikes. I didn't feel like spending time looking at all the Victory's, Suzukis, Yamahas, Aprilias, etc. etc., but I DID want to look at the Indians. They had around 15 Indian bikes (all various Chief models except for one Scout). I did find one VERY interesting model - the 2015 Chieftain Trike. Bet you didn't know Indian made a Trike?? Actually they don't, but evidently this is a conversion made by Hannigan. I don't think I want one of these right now, but I thought it was pretty cool. I liked the 2-wheeled versions better, though.
A little bit on the pricey side, but look at that trunk...
