Harley isn't the original company either, or Colt, or S&W, or Ford, or GM. No company can be the "original company" if it's going to be around very long.

Indian Motorcycle company has original engineering along with the heart and soul of the original Indian, unlike the last couple of owners.

Working in Springfield for many years I am familiar with the original Factory Plant some of the original buildings still survive. There was a Indian Motorcycle Museum there also in but I am not sure if it is still there. Funny how they are bringing back a military bike, it was part of Indians downfall that they were so intertwined with military production that they lost a lot of their Dealers because they could not supply Bikes for the civilian market, and of course H-D was able to. One regret I have is when a friend offered me a upright trade, his Chief for my BSA Royal Star! I turned him down and have kicked myself everafter.
