To be fair, the new road glide fairing is ugly asf too

@bmartinez2005 Ай бұрын

I have both the 117 and 108 power plus. Both are stage 1 only but I did a flash on the 117. My challenger, the exact bike in the video eats my 117 for lunch. My buddy has the 117 I have with stage three. Stop light to stop light he still can't keep up but at high speeds (100-111) he catches and passes me. Love both bikes.

U kept talking about the plastic my harley has plastic side panels faring and inner faring

@03Grunt-arrino Ай бұрын

He said he doesn’t like all the plastic on the HD’s either.

@jayboucher9128 Ай бұрын

Ok woke supporter, I have 2016 Harley Road glide and a Indian 2016 chief vintage, hands down the Indian vintage is a better quality machine, smother shifting and better balanced. I like both bikes, but the truth is the truth!! Indian is my #1 bike.

Bike is ugly and not high quality

Yup sounds like a Harley brother riding an Indian 😂😂😂

A polaris... there is literally zero indian heritage.. no tooling...no factories..no employee's.. no engineering..no nothing other than a word and a font. And if they polaris didn't purchase Indiana brand tenant. 80% of people on a polaris would not of bought it.

Yikes, cringe levels of Harley bias. Completely exaggerated. There's plastic all over the new Harley Glides, and the power delivery on the new 117 still isn't as good as the 108. The engine dies after 4k rpm? Dude it makes most of its power above 4k rpm 😂 You pretty much set-out to trash on this bike and make stuff up just to confirm your own bias

@romeoblade Ай бұрын

Does review, don't know if bike has a radiator. Please at least put in effort and look at the specs of the bike you're reviewing before reviewing. This tells me you were completely biased going into this review and the outcome would be the same regardless as you put in no effort.

The Challenger is way better than any Harley that they make. That’s a fact, my friend I know cause I used to ride Harley.

@markurbancowboy Ай бұрын

Dude, I'm a Harley owner and rider and this does not sound like an honest review of the Indian Challenger, in no way can that engine feel like a M8 107. That engine is liquid cooled and puts out 122hp and dang near 130ftlbs! That bike will run every stock aircooled HD and even the new liquid cooled M8's! You definitely sound like an HD salesman.

I'll take the Challenger over RG any day. Love my 23 Pursuit. Drop the hate though. If you're a HD bro just go with that. I also love my HD as well. But there's no comparison. The Indian is a superior machine all the way around. And you did this wearing shorts? You aren't a very knowledgeable rider nor a decent video maker. Promoting riding in golf gear is ridiculous. You really need to do some work here my friend. You show a lack of experience. A disregard for safety. Extreme bias towards HD. Which is fine but not good for growing subscribers and your channel. You definitely need some work. Really.

@thamoj0 Ай бұрын

i love how he already knows about polaris...and thus his negative comments are all based on that premise. If i had to chose, ill take polaris over german woke insanity all day.

@dccycler3554 Ай бұрын

Your sales manager is gonna give you an extra commission this month for this SUPER BIAS review of this indian. @16:59-- “honest review”…not even close bro. we don’t expect an HD salesman to admit love for a competitor but man….the bias is outrageous in this review. Lastly, I just checked your Website and looks this “Challenger” is already sold…hmmmmm interesting. Guess someone that wasn’t bias…bought it quickly (over some of the many HDs on your showroom floor). P.S. big fan of your other vids……but this one…..not so much

@JohnnieOnTwoWheels Ай бұрын

I don’t think you gave an honest review of this bike. Your review really sucks because you didn’t even go through all the ride modes. You didn’t even know what mode you were in so your bike thumbs down, buddy.

Weird, Bruuther. You gotta twist that grip above 4k! But you late bloomers are so cute!

@boyddusharm Ай бұрын

100 reviews of the challenger, first one to say anything negative. It’s the way you presented your negative that was “weird” to me further labeling you as biased. Harley is a great brand and awesome bike builder and yes the RG looks more premium than the Challenger but the RG fails in every other category. It may not be a “true Indian” but don’t forget Polaris is still an American company.

@RalphMalone-mw1qo Ай бұрын

I have a 24 Road Glide and they are not that great either they definitely are not worth the money Harley is charging and no I would never buy an Indian I believe both motorcycle companies have the same design team

@thamoj0 Ай бұрын

"weird" to us normal people just means its something different

@bigsimpd Ай бұрын

Indian needs a new design team. Them bikes are ugly imo. And even some Indian you tubers have said the same. The design is ugly. #harleydavidson 😊

Come on my guy, there is a huge difference in the power delivery, The Indian has noticeable power advantage. I think what you may be feeling in terms of power delivery, the Harley makes it power a lot lower in the power band where the indian makes it's power up higher!

Finally! a really honest review! (all others just click baiters dulls) and you know what? great majority of those individulas so worried about mocking on Harley are nothing but keyboard junkies, they don't even have a clue. Harleys are just pure iron and steel and the latter models like the last generations of twin cams or the m8's are really fine machines with lots of power. You may know or heard about a channel called Hunting Harleys, that guy is really knowledgeable about Harley Davidson, he can tell you everything you want to know about knuckles, pans, shovels....but it's not one of those guys stuck in the past, he knows for a fact that new Harleys are way better and powerful that the older ones, and that comes from a guy that lived his youth in the 60's, 70's surrounded by Harleys. And let me tell you, I'm with you man! I just hate those bloody crotch rockets! I just hate 'em! haha!, just like you stated, I just hate the position, the whole bloody style man! not my style at all!. Cheers man! ride fast! ride hard! 🍻🍻😎😎 P.S. I believe the words you were looking to describe that bogging after 4000 rpm's were "fall on its face"; they love that sentence! ha!

I felt the same when I reviewed it on my channel and I got bashed from people. Lol. It’s literally just a bike. Easy way to say it is it lacks character.

@PistolPeteHD Ай бұрын

Your reaction was identical to how I felt about any of the Indians that we have taken on trade. Styling, fit, finish, and power department were a bit lacking. In my humblest of opinion

@choppermontana8212 Ай бұрын

Kind of an odd video. Reviews a bike, but doesn't know much about it. Ok. A lot of videos on YT of Harley owners not being able to start their 2024 Road Glides. Harley is still woke. If you want your money supporting Drag Queen Story Hours, DEI, carbon neutrality, LGBTQ+ events and rides, and transgender advocacy, buy your Harley-Davidson.

@Murdaoneproductions 19 күн бұрын

lol... How do you say "Im a Harley salesman and I want to sell you a Harley" without telling you "Im a Harley salesman and I want to sell you a Harley" I ride with a lot of guys all have Harley's and Indians and nothing stock but the "ST" can keep up. I will agree change the bars. All the bikes are ugly. U ride a Indian like a sport bike...above 3500k but ride safe...
