    Wow, it doesn't get more authentic that this... @Mr. Stenegärd: congrats on your success and @Indian: congrats on the great bikes you have launched in the last years, especially the Chiefs and the new Scouts!

    I enjoyed watching this video! My grandfather Sven Hagman was a BIG enthusiast of Indian Motorcycles and I believe he had his first one in the 1940's. I have nice memories of visiting his garage (which was spotless) as a child. Nice shining motorcycles!

    The Chief and Scout models are great, and Ola and his team have done a great job in bringing Indian Motorcycle to where it is today. Study these carefully, I think Indian Motorcycle with these have found just the right mix. What an adventure. We can only look forward to the future, even if the authorities are making it more and more challenging to achieve this with ever-new measures regarding emissions and safety. Indian Motorcycle is back - and they are here to stay.

    That chief chopper I wanna see that. I love his full circle design philosophy. Yeah you buy OEM but how long it takes you to make it yours is part of the journey. It could be be pipes, bars, suspension or seats and controls. But you can also pull it apart and put it back together again and create something that drives the fringe of the motorcycle culture and OEM can dial it back from there. I do enjoy listening to this man talk about motorcycles and indian and the direction it's going.

    Interesting. A chopper head building cruisers. Not a chopper enthusiast myself, but if he designed my Scout Bobber... kudos. Good job.

    It's cool that you nowadays can live at a beautiful place like Gotland and still have an international top job. Great for work and life balance. 👍
    Great looking bikes, I personally especially love the Scout Bobber and the FTR! 🔝

    Anyone know what model bike that Ola is riding at the end is please? It looks mega with those square panniers on it. Great video and nice to find out more about Ola.

    I would like to see Indian come out with one simple air cooled model that actually resembles a 40's Indian Chief. It could be reduced somewhat in size and weight with no plastic fairings or electronic devices to make owner maintenance and repairs feasible.

    Keep on going. But make more comfortable seats!!!!
    Its like buying a Cadilac just to notice you're more comfortable on a pile of wood.
    Mostly I'm not always a 100% with the Design of the bikes. Yet, I wouldn't know how to make it 100% myself.
    What I do miss is something like an HD Heritage Classic in size, but with an Indian classic design. I'm not a fan of the huge panels for example on the Chief Classic 2019. A bit less fender, a bit less housing around the frame, same style... I'm in for the 2k19, but I sell my current Indian for a bit lighter less "panely" design. Or maybe just make room for a second one. Anyway ride hard, ride free.

      How tall are you? My buddy is 6'10". The Indian dealership with some accessories like bars, far reach seat, and adjusted foot controls and highway pegs they were able to accommodate him and get him riding in comfort.
