I didn’t get to this week’s news roundup on Friday, so I’m doing it today. This week saw some interesting motorcycle news stories and below you’ll see the three stories I don’t think you should overlook.
This week the news is focused on Harley-Davidson, Royal Enfield, and Indian Motorcycle.
Let’s dive in.
Harley-Davidson Pan America Review
I have mixed feelings about the Harley-Davidson Pan America, but I will say this. The motorcycle seems to be pretty darn good. Reviews are out, and if the linked review from Cycle World is any indication of the truth (and I suspect it’s accurate), then you’d better be prepared for an adventure motorcycle world where Harley is a standout.
Royal Enfield Files for Shotgun Trademark
In today’s world, Royal Enfield has left its tagline “Made like a gun” behind, but people still reference it, and I wonder if this new trademark filing harkens back to that old tagline. The Royal Enfield Shotgun has a nice ring to it.
Indian Motorcycle Will Have 3 Bagger Racing Teams
Bagger racing is a lot of fun to watch, and Indian is a key player. The manufacturer announced it will have three different bagger teams in the upcoming races. They are Mission Foods S&S Indian Challenger, Roland Sands Design, and Saddlemen. It’s going to be fun to watch.
