Indian Chief description

1948 80 cubic inch Chief Featured in the December 2011 issue of Iron Works magazine. 1st place winner at the Sacramento Autorama
The bike and sidecar were built with the best available parts over a 10 year period. The speedometer is an NOS Stewart Warner unit with 70 actual miles now showing. The entire bike and sidecar have been upgraded to a 12 Volt system charged by a Cycle Electric generator. The sidecar brake has been upgraded using a 47-48 Chief front drum, with new axle, bearings, backing plate and brake shoes. It will skid the tire. The Chief was built using NOS engine and transmission parts. Custom all aluminum Indian sidecar built by Iron Horse Corral... with leather interior, Sidecar has GPS driven speedo with clock and volt meter, and has a complete stereo system behind the seat which can play music from an iPod or any mp3 player as well as from an SD card similar to a camera card. All components of the sidecar body are made from aluminum because it has never been done before. Iron Horse Corral builds sidecar bodies, fenders and tanks exclusively for Indians up to 1953, so this bike is a show piece for most all of the products from my shop. We have enjoyed showing it and looking at it for many years and it's time for another project. The entire build pictorial of this rig can be viewed on our Facebook page under Iron Horse Corral. There is also a 4 minute video on youtube that can be accessed on our website indianfenders.com go to the gallery page and click on the photo of the 48 Chief

Polaris Reports Q1 2012 Results

Wed, 18 Apr 2012

Polaris Industries reported a 44% increase in on-road vehicle sales revenue and a 40% increase in North American Victory Motorcycle unit sales over the first quarter of 2012. According to Polaris’ first quarter report, its on-road vehicle division (which consists of the Victory and Indian motorcycle brands as well as electric vehicle brands GEM and Goupil) generated $64.7 million in sales revenue, compared to $44.9 million reported in the same quarter of 2011. Of course, the Polaris didn’t yet own Indian, GEM or Goupil during that quarter last year, so the figures are a bit misleading.
