Can we talk about time travel paradoxes...??? I think it would be easier to understand...

Further to previous comments I voted cool = on the basis of the fact that this though very American in style is NOT a Harley Davidson & is at least an attempt to revive/sustain an existing marque. Perhaps in addition to the "meh" option we should have a "hopeful/trying" vote?

I voted: FAIL

In fact, it's one of the few bikes I've voted fail on the Cool Wall. I know Polaris will make things better and hopefully not have a $27000 motorcycle as a base model. H-D is pricey but it's at least $10k less. What I am guessing is happening here is Polaris purchased the Indian company and the previous owners had a whole warehouse of parts around and thus built what they could to get rid of the parts. Shoulda been much, much cheaper, there was no reason to sell it over $15k I think.

I'm courious what Polaris is going to be bringing out for their 2014 Indians, hopefully something different than a Victory (not that anything is wrong with Victory's I am a fan of them).

I voted cool. The Indian brand is so iconic that to me it doesn't matter how many times it comes back, it's always cool. I realise this bike is VERY expensive but for the die-hard Indian fan it's probably not that much to buy into this classic make.

Wow, quite the responses and varied voting to our very first 2013 motorcycle on the Cool Wall! Well done!

Your Coolness Factor of the 2013 Indian Chief Classic is...

Awesome (3 points) 16% [ 6 ]
Cool (2 points) 29% [ 11 ]
Uncool (1 point) 21% [ 8 ]

Total votes : 38

And with our new voting system we get:

Average points per vote: 38/48 = 1.26
Standardized to a maximum of 3 points: 1.26/3 x 100 = 42

...Therefore, this bike ranks a Coolwall Factor of 42!

Next bike now up and it's an original!
