The Indian motorcycle began its rebirth In Dearborn, Michigan back around 1991. I was a supervisor working at Pioneer Engineering on the Lincoln Town Car. Some of my fellow Designers, and Engineers were “secretly” working on it in the basement of our building. I say say secretly because they were still charging there services to Ford. Not very ethical. They began with rounding parts up from junk yards, barns, where ever they could be found.They only thing I know that folks did not like as that they did not developer there own engine. I believe they bough it from Harley, or Suzuki. I am not sure on this point.

That sounds like what Tucker did the get his car built. Built his prototype with parts from other manufacturers, way ahead of his time and the Big # did not want “modern” ideas as that would require them to massively retool everything, its a shame history did what it did to the Tucker automobiles.

Frankly I am impressed with what Victory is offering lately though personally I may stay with Yamaha and either get an FJR1300 or a Stratoliner Deluxe in the future.
