= a Coolwall Factor of 73.0%

Total Motorcycle's Take-a-way: With cruiser sales slowing and selection dwindling down, it's good to see Indian releasing another new cruiser. H-D could take a page out of the 50's heritage style here. Also the natives are getting restless and want something new in cruisers... can radical design change be near? Remember the 80's cruisers vs the 90's-2000's design?

It's a real slim victory for the Awesome vote. You usually don't see a bike voted Awesome in the low 70's in score. But there you have it.

Mike

Get excited as the next TMW Cool Wall bike for 2017 is now up for voting and discussion, have fun!

It's pretty, but after what Polaris did to the Victory brand, I'd be very unlikely to buy any Polaris product. Indian could well be another orphaned brand in a few years.

Overpriced, overweight pig with styling that is purely form-over-function. Air-cooled, which is totally inexcusable on a $21,000 motorcycle. Fail.
