31 to 40 THOUSAND DOLLARS....


...I'm sure that Indian did not intend for the prices to get that high. I think that they just lost all of their middle-class customers. In this day and age, even if you had 40 grand laying around, you could buy 2 good cars and a new Bonneville for that amount...

I remember when the older "new" Indians came out. The cheapest Scout was $17K.

That's ridiculous!

Indian needs an entry level bike that costs under $10k. Even Harley enthusiasts will admit that the Sportster is the reason that Harley has been as successful as it is.

Just my .02
