although i like the two tone one better,this is one real good looking trike, but again i am looking for a rear trunk mounted on the rear like my Harley has. i know i am only one person and that it is only one opinion but there just is not enough room in the trunk for all the stuff you will need to go on a extended trip with two people up. in the meantime i am getting some good idea's of what my choices can be if and when they can get a trunk mounted ,if ever. the fringe looks great but the rear passenger footrests look cheap and out of place on this great looking trike. they need to be flat and big for comfort for passenger so their foot will not slip off when riding and it will also make it easier for mounting and dismounting the trike. hopefully i will get the chance to buy one the way i want it to be so i guess we will wait and see.

The 2015 Indians will be revealed in Sturgis Aug. 2nd so, not much longer to wait. Reliable sources indicate the "Tourmaster" will be a new model. A Chieftain with a tour pack and lowers. There is also rumor that floorboards will be in the 2015 catalog. I think you're going to get that trike just the way you want it. BTW, I'm waiting right along with you!!

I've been hearing the same thing. That will be the perfect Indian to convert to a trike. ThumbUp

I've seen some pictures of the 'Two Tone' offerings. They look fantastic! :10:

I hope the info about the rear trunk on the new model will be what i am looking for. i am not worried about the fit and finish as Hannigan does not do anything half as-ed and that part of my decision is already at rest. after i see the newest pix's of the trunk kit and if i like what i see i will be giving somebody in Alabama a call to see what we can do to get one.

Hmmm... Someone added a trunk to an Indian.

There are lots of aftermarket tourpacs out there, that one doesn't look too bad.

Sure Hannigan can color match and mount one for customers.

looking at the pix of the after market tour pack i don't think it would work on the Hannigan trike kit as the rear trunk of the kit would not open far enough. i may be wrong because of the angle of that pix and i would have to see it much closer but either way i will wait until i can see one mounted on a Indian trike, all done.

I see what you're talking about. It appears that whoever mounted the aftermarket box in the picture mounted it using straight metal bars and its lower than the factory tour box would normally sit. The factory tour boxes sit a good bit higher than the one in the picture.

This is what Corbin has done. Not a great reception from the Indian community.

 

[captdanwh]

that is not something i would care to have on my ride. only my opinion ,but it is still my bike.

Well...the second Indian 2015 "reveal" is out and there is no new info on the bikes, just a group ride with Mike Wolfe American Picker. They're keeping the 2015 bike news very secret!
Since the Chieftain fairing was modeled after the steamliner trains of the 40's and 50's, I'm hoping the new tour pack doesn't look like a caboose.

 

[rmrc51]

The only addition I've heard of so far is the two-tone paint options which look fantastic giving the bike and even more nostalgic look, imho. ThumbUp

WILL Be WELL-Worth the wait and anticipation ThumbUp

Mike Wolfe eh?
Should make for an exciting Ride for sure. He is always so animated and passionate about Motorcycles.
Looking forward to seeing Pics and reading the Posts of those who attend and participate.

Maybe they will model it after a Reefer Car, including the cooling unit!! ThumbUp:wave4:epper:

Maybe after the Club Car at the end of the Hiawatha.

The much talked about trunk has been revealed. It's described as holding two full size helmets and, of course, removeable. I like it. Think it flows well. It is what it is. No longer a speculation.
