Hello GB,
An Indian is a proper bike? I guess so if you call a plastic motorcycle made by a snowmobile manufacturers proper. Harley Davidson has outlasted out built out raced and outdone Indian in every respect. Do your research before you start spouting ad comments and campaigns like that.

In reply to GB.

Hi Graeme,
Thanks for the note. I do mention in the review that the rear suspension is an issue but also that I found it OK, which I did, over a wide range of roads. I talked about the high speed compression being too harsh but that the compromise is worth it, being better handling. I would prefer more travel, sure, I guess the standard Road Glide is a lot better as it has more travel. I had no issues with heat – is this as in hot to ride or running hot? It’d be good to try the Indian but they don’t supply us with press bikes unfortunately… Cheers, Jeff.

Pretty staggered at the high rating, given the abysmal rear suspension on anything less than freeways. Also would have been very interested to hear about the heat factor. How about a side by side with the Indian Challenger?
