Kinda makes Harley electric seem 10 years behind. Now with Polaris in talks with MV Augusta to become major owner. Just proves that Harley has no investment or vision for the future. Shows a electric last year and not shown since. Just wish they would come up with a modern motorcycle look at the MV Agusta or the Alabama made Motus V4 180 HP and 140 FT LBS

Personally not real impressed with what Polaris did with Indian. Can only speak for So Cal but the dealers that went exclusive for Indian are absolutely dying from what a few guys I know that went to work there are telling me. In San Marcos (Outside San Diego) they sell way more used Harley's than they do new Indians.

While in Rogers AR on the Pre-NMITM GTG a couple weeks ago, we were at the Indian / Victory dealership.  That's where Mikeytee will probably be getting his next new ride.  He looked marvelous on that big new Indian...

Anyway I digress, In the Victory side they had a new Victory electric bike.  Once I figured out how to get UP on that thing, it was very tall, I noticed it had a brake on the right and a shift lever on the left.

WTF...  Why is there a shift lever???
