HDTimeline,
I believe the 2013 referenced is a leftover from the old Indian. The new ones with the new Polaris engine will be available later this year.
I have a 1998 FLHTCI which I love and a 2005 Victory Hammer which has been flawless. I think the new Indian's released later this year will be more reasonably priced, have a better engine than anything out there, and will give HD some serious competition.
I hate to say it, but by any objective measure (JD Powers, stock price, etc.), Polaris is a much better run company than HD.
I think competition is great, and I can't wait to see these new Indian models.

Question:
Who owns Indian Motorcycles?
Answer:
Polaris Industries Inc purchased Indian Motorcycle Company in April 2011. Now backed by a $2 billion company, you can expect the confidence of the Polaris engineering team, vision, quality and performance to be delivered in the classic Indian Motorcycle. To learn more about Polaris

Your right Jack, Polaris bought Indian in 2011 BUT they HAVE NOT produced anything since then. All they are doing is selling the leftover Eagle Mountain Indians. If your going to the website then you should watch ALL of the videos to become informed as to what is going on. The new engine has been reveiled but the Polaris Indian has not yet been released.
This Chief model is way out of my price range, but was hoping they would come with a more-affordable Scout. But at this price point, maybe I'll hold out for the Papoose model.

I am sure this is going to cause some serious interest especially at that starting price. Wonder if Harley has anything up it sleeves like a new Heritage Springer Nostalgic.
The new Chief that is scheduled to be shown at Sturgis in August has a $18,999.00 price tag. Heating up the competition. Dealer network is to me the issue as how many they will have and for how long? Indian doesn't has the best longevity history.
