W H A T Y O U A R E S A Y I N G "I was giggling like a schoolboy at the instant and silent power." Alta Closing Up Shop This is sad news. I recently got to test ride the EXR and it was amaz- ing! I was giggling like a schoolboy at the instant and silent power. I hope they can get investors. Maybe Elon Musk likes motor- cycles? Steven Salmons I really thought this company would take things to the next level. I hope they can pull things back together. Jason Soseman My "parts bike" has just become more valuable, I guess. Or maybe it's more valuable as a collector's item? James Stroup No one wants to hear nothing when they are riding. You'll never succeed in this industry with a soundless bike. People love hear- ing [an] engine. For pros, hearing the engine, just the sound, helps you gauge jumps on how fast and the throttle control you need. Dylan Kirchner I hope someone can find financ- ing to put this company back on its feet. They made huge progress and the bikes are good. Michael Price So sad. I think their product had huge opportunity. They were very close to forever altering the recre- ational motorcycling industry! Brian Barnes Indian Dark Horse First Impression Please don't mention the Victory Cross Country in the same breath as an Indian. The Victory was less expensive, lighter and more powerful than the Chief. It just suffered from not being a replica of a very famous motorcycle built in Springfield, Massachusetts.
