Are RK Classic owners more accepting of the look of the new Indian motorcycles? The consensus among others in HDF (General Thread) is they are not very pretty.

I don't know what others in this thread believe think but I think they are pretty cool looking bikes. I especially like the Vintage.

I like it a lot. I also road a couple on a demo day. The first one was a dog, but the second one ran very strong and handled well. They were saying that they were pre-production bikes, not sure if that true, but it world explain the bad running one.

But, I'll still keep my king

That color combo is beautiful. Now you've got me thinking.

I think they look cool (overall), but I'm not a fan of the front fender. Looks like they tried too hard NOT to look like a Harley.

The vintage in Red and White is definitely a head turner for me. After a few tasteful changes it can be quite a looker too!
