I know cruisers are hated here but I just love this. Some have mid controls and mid controls are available. Lots of tech in these, the speedo has navigation built into it. This is where the hole in the Indian lineup was. For me I like the style and happy to see these new models...

Do you own gold as part of your retirement or savings strategy? Do you think owning gold is a good idea or a bad idea? I own gold and I'll tell you why. It to me is a hedge against inflation. It helps my savings retain it's value. I don't expect to get rich from it. Hers is a gold analogy I...

I can see motorcycle training courses are starting again. I spied this class at Alameda Point in Alameda.

I just got my supposivly last edition of motorcyclist magazine and I'm not renewing. I also let my Cycle World subscription laps. I enjoyed many years of reading these magazines but no more. I find most all information about motorcycling online now and hardly even look at the magazines now. I...

http://www.latimes.com/business/autos/la-fi-hy-motorcycle-summit-20171214-story.html It looks like the trouble in the motorcycle industry may be worse than we thought. The conclusions from the round table motorcycle industry discussion as brought about by Robert Panda former Indian Motorcycle...

It seems that the motorcycle industry in the U.S is shrinking. Young people are no longer starting to ride. Cars are becoming almost automatic. They self park, have warning systems, air bags and emergency brake on their own. Motorcycling remains a risky way to travel. I see very few people...

I have an inguinal hernia. It doesn't really bother me yet but it should only get worse. I'm a General Contractor and have to lift heavy objects on occasion and one of my hobbies is bodybuilding which I'm actively persuing now. I went to Kaiser and the doctor said I will need surgery in order to...

If anybody else has been waiting for a street tracker based on the FTR it should be here soon. I understand there may also be one based on the 750 as well. For those of you looking for a feet forward cruiser, sorry this aint for you. I want one...

Well it's just another variation of the Indian Scout but it looks cool. While it still doesn't have mid controls the pegs have been moved back a bit along with the handlebars. I wonder how it stacks up against the Triumph Bobber? I'm going to wait for the street version of the FTR 750 before I...

A street version of the Indian 750 flat tracker? I hope so, it doesn't sound like a regular Scout. Hopefully Polaris won't disappoint with another new cruiser. Time for some different models yo :banana https://www.facebook.com/indianmotorcycle/videos/10155537152054028/
