Well I think I'm Going Add a New Ride 2 Months, 2 Weeks ago  
Well I think I'm going to add a new ride. I will probably purchase this 2018 Indian Chieftain Limited in a couple of weeks. I will let my oldest son have my Roadstar for right now. I came into some money and feel like I needs to treat myself. It will have a stage 1 air filter and Rinehart slipons already installed. They sound really good. I rode the HD Streetglide and Roadglide also. I thought the Streetglide made me feel cramped the Roadglide was a little better. I'm still worried that they have not found out why the transmission oil drains into the primary on new Milwaukee Eight on some of their bikes. I really like the power and handling of the Indian. Besides I always want to be different from my friends.

This bike inspired me to check out the Indian. We saw this at the Hollister Rally this year.

+1 Sweet ride Mike. Would love to see it in person too. maybe we can go for a ride in the foothills sometime, and if your boy can come too that would be great! Dang the weather was so nice today I wanted to get out for a ride but holiday guests are coming and I had to get some things done. If your boy decides on installing that fender kit let him know he's welcome to contact me if he has any questions.

Congrats on the Indian.. if you get it!!!

Almost copped a 2014 Indian but chickened out. Thought I should wait a couple years as health and circumstances are changing faster than the weather.

Really like your ride! My next bike will be an Indian if there is a next bike.
