Thought this was interesting as hell as I think that the Indian Powerplus motors of the today are IMHO the best looking American made V-Twin since the Panhead....

Talked to one of the guys and there have been quite a few people that have replaced the S&S motors from the CMC Indians w/ these babys. Dude said that they were in the process of putting one in an S&S Scout.
These motors would be a great alternative if building a custom scoot and there is a company
that has them in thier bikes...

Re: Aftermarket Powerplus Motors
Rob,
I guess we'll have to wait until enough of those engines have gone enough miles to really see if they are as good as they look.
Reborn injuns are a whole different tribe, its hard to say where you should put info about them, but I would agree that they should be lumped with the other repop stuff.
For my money, if you want a bike that looks like the original Chief that came out of Springfield, get a cowsucker Drifter. They actually look kinda neat, ride great, and you have a network of dealerships all over the country to bail you out if you need parts or service.

Re: Aftermarket Powerplus Motors
Thats true Mike...They surely haven't passed the test of time and miles. The more I study these motors the more they appear to be Evos in disquise. A lot of parts are interchangable and the cone style model they offer can use a evo ignition.
