Top pic looks like something that fell off the top of an RV.

If one listens closely, one can almost hear the buttholes of those Juneau Ave execs puckering as I type.

All the press I have read to this point has been positive, the dyno results in the first link indicate that this machine packs plenty of punch right out of the box. Can't wait to actually ride one and then see how it rides. If the suspension is as good as it appears and they have no major issues with the newly designed bits, I'll probably own one at some point.

Thanks for the video link Rob.

Sure looks like this bike has lots of features that Harley is not offering and the same price point as a RGS, heck some the CVO doesent even offer.  I will be very interesded in doing a demo ride on one.

in reading one of the linked articles, they put it on a dyno and got the following: 

its belt-driven rear wheel cranked out 113.3 lb-ft of torque at 3,500 rpm and 107.6 horsepower at 5,600 rpm

  so everyone who is all gobsmacked about the 122hp, and 128 ft/lb of torque are going to be sorely disappointed to learn that it its measured at the crank, not the rear wheel, and  aren't that far off of hd's numbers

I didn't like the look of the pre-rushmore roadglides, at first.  I became intrigued by them in 2010 when they came out with the custom.  actually started liking the look.  then when they came out with the redesigned rushmore fairings, I didn't like the aesthetic change.  tbh, I still think the pre-rushmore looks better.  but, the point is, I like the look now.  but, I gotta admit, it is going to take a long time before I grow to like the look on the challenger, if ever.  that single headlight just really looks off to me.  and the whole fairing seems so big and chunky....

It looks like a Home Run for Indian. Can't wait to test ride one.

Kinda disappointed, I rode to Savannah Indian to see the new Challenger and see if it passed the sniff test. Not expected to have any in their dealership till mid November. 

Maybe I'll get there to check out the 2021's

Just Ride!

I’m looking forward to owning one and doing my own review and thoughts on it... I have a 19 CVO RG that’s at Hillside getting the 128 big bore kit right now, definitely keeping it, love my bike and have way too much money into it... I’m really not a brand loyal guy, yes I have owned several H-D since 2004, I consider myself a motorcycle guy.... I have a Indian dealership about 20 miles from my house, I plan on stopping in this weekend and putting a deposit down on the Dark version... I’m looking forward to trying the motor in stock form before I start modding the heck out of it...I would imagine that if the bike sells well there will be lots of aftermarket parts for building the motor..I guess the great thing is if I don’t like the bike I will gift it to my 70 year old Father who still rides his motorcycles daily...

Does any manufacturer give HP numbers at the rear wheel?  HD will not publish HP numbers, but based on non-HD dyno info, the 114 has about 100 HP at the crank.

This is very offensive.

In the age of political correctness, talking about riding an “Indian” is very insensitive to the Native Americans.

Polaris should have dumped the “I” line and kept Victory.

Shame, shame, shame.
