So has your TC done enough miles to have it's first oil change yet TD? They don't rack up many miles on a trailer....

Did they kick you out of the touring section TD and coming back to the land of misfits?

John has a real Chief, I'm kinda of a fan of the 99-00 S&S Evo engined Chief before the pop bottle cap engine showed up and put them out of business again. May get the Evo one later if the price is right.

Gilroy bikes are cheap but parts are a thing except the S%S engines and evo trans - the other Indians had all kinds of issues all the time = the new ones might be ok BUT Polaris when taking over the indian trade mark, went after all the guys in the antique indian business making small batches of parts for the collectables we own for copy right infringement - all they wanted was money they have no interest in making anything for the older machines - 25.000 bucks to use the name making one part per year put a lot of guys out and it has become a real thing to get some pieces made in the USA by real American's - a real example of corporate greed and the dealers expect us to attend events promoting the machines = not happening


yea MY Indian Chief is a 1948 and by its chassis number in production its actually 5 weeks younger then I am, so when its being a thing to start I know actually how it feels
