MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT MOTORCYCLE

Introducing the 2014 Indian Chieftain!
New look. Same soul. The 2014 Indian Chieftain is in touch with its past, but far ahead of its time. It's the first Indian Motorcycle ever with a hard fairing, hard saddlebags and unprecedented new comfort and convenience features. It's like no Indian Motorcycle ever seen before, yet its style makes clear it has the DNA of a legendary Indian Motorcycle.

Thunder Stroke 111 The new Thunder Stroke 111 engine delivers an incredible 119 ft-lbs of torque and features styling that pays tribute to legendary Indian Motorcycle engines of the past.

Keyless Enjoy convenient and secure keyless starting. With the Indian Chieftain key fob in your pocket, climb on the bike, push a button and ride. If you misplace the fob, use the individual security code that you pre-programmed into the ignition.

Extensive Chrome Virtually every surface that could be chromed has been chromed. From end to end, the beautiful, bright chrome finish elevates the Indian Chieftain's™ style.

Windshield Raise and lower the power-adjustable windshield with the push of a button to customize airflow and protection.

Hard Saddlebags Spacious hard saddlebags are mounted on quick-release anchors and feature remote electronic locks you control with a console mounted button - or a convenient key fob.

Driving Lights Driving lights provide both style and protection down any road you choose to take.

High-Output Audio The fairing houses an audio system that delivers clean, quality sound from dual high-output speakers. The aerodynamic fairing blocks wind to allow you to enjoy your highway playlist without interference.

Audio Bluetooth The integrated Bluetooth smart phone connection makes it easy to run music stored in the phone through the Indian Chieftain audio system. Playlist info is displayed on the multi-function display screen, and switches near the handgrip make it easy to control the audio. Bluetooth® is a registered trademark of Bluetooth Sig, Inc.

5-Year Coverage/Roadside Assistance Indian Motorcycle backs every new Indian Chieftain with 5 years of coverage that includes both a 1 year limited warranty and an extended service contract. Subject to $50 deductible, no mileage limitation. Ride with confidence and peace of mind that you'll enjoy every memorable mile. Plus, every new rider will be provided a full year of Indian Motorcycle Roadside Assistance for added assurance. See dealer for details.

Classic Iconic Features
 
Indian Motorcycle Badging One of the classic elements of an Indian Motorcycle is the vintage badging. Ever since the Indian script logo was first created in 1910, and Indian Motorcycle Red became the standard Indian Motorcycle color in 1912, these features have made the Indian Motorcycle badging a hallmark of this historic brand.

War Bonnet Lighting the way as it has done since 1947 is the iconic War Bonnet. Mounted proudly atop the front fender in a chrome frame, this light makes it clear, "This is a genuine Indian Motorcycle."

Valenced Fenders Stylish, elegant and functional, the iconic valenced fenders, standard since 1940, enhance the flowing styling lines of every Indian Motorcycle. They also provide protection, effectively blocking road spray and gravel kicked up by the tires.

Brake Caliper Covers Every Indian Motorcycle is equipped with outstanding brakes, and in keeping with our traditional styling, we choose to cover the calipers. The result is a clean, stylish, beautifully finished sheet metal - iconic Indian Motorcycle valanced fenders.

Comfort with Style

Stage 1 Slip-On Exhaust Add the Stage 1 Slip-On Exhaust and enjoy a rich, throaty exhaust note that provides the perfect soundtrack for the open road. This exhaust system allows the Thunder Stroke 111 motorcycle engine to breath more freely and unleash additional power and crisp throttle response.

Six Shooter Exhaust Tips It's easy to give your Indian Motorcycle a major infusion of custom style with a set of Six Shooter Exhaust Tips. These motorcycle exhaust tips fit on all Stage 1 Slip-On Exhaust pipes and feature timeless American cruiser motorcycle styling.

Saddlebag Audio Kit Turn your Indian Chieftain motorcycle into a rolling concert hall with this Saddlebag Audio Kit. Using the color-matched Concert Audio Lids to replace the stock lids, the integrated audio system will deliver powerful, premium-quality audio to complement the output from your fairing speakers.

 Quick Release Passenger Backrest Provide your passenger with a strong, secure, comfortable backrest in just seconds by adding this Standard Height Quick Release Passenger Backrest to an Indian motorcycle. The backrest's Quick Release technology lets you install or remove the entire backrest in seconds - without tools!
*Luggage rack sold separately.

MONTHLY SPOTLIGHT ATV
Polaris Sportsman 570 EFI

 
The powerful, customizable Sportsman 570 EFI is here and ready for whatever job you need done!

POWERFUL PROSTAR EFI PERFORMANCE
Now with 22% more horsepower (44 hp) and featuring Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI) and Dual Overhead Cams with 4 valves per cylinder, the 570 starts flawlessly and runs smoothly.

INDUSTRY EXCLUSIVE LOCK & RIDE / STEEL REAR RACK
Redesigned rear rack features durable steel construction and Lock & Ride® technology to make it easy to carry and secure gear.

BUILT TO RUN ACCESSORIES
40% more watts for more charging power and the capability to operate more hardest working Polaris accessories.

INCREASED FUEL CAPACITY
13% more fuel capacity than its predecessor the Sportsman 500 H.O.

ON-DEMAND TRUE ALL-WHEEL DRIVE (AWD)
True AWD keeps you moving, automatically engaging all four wheels when you need more forward traction and reverting back to 2WD when you don't. Other ATVs use a limited-slip differential, engaging only three wheels.


INTEGRATED FRONT STORAGE
The most integrated storage of any ATV. The 6.5 gallon capacity lets you stow-away loads of gear and still have access to it, even with items tied to the deck.

ERGONOMICS FOR YOUR COMFORT
The front of the seat and side panels have been narrowed at the thigh by 3.25". Coupled with wider and longer floor boards, the new layout is more comfortable and makes it easier to mount and dismount the ATV.

HIGH GROUND CLEARANCE
A full 11" of obstacle-clearing ground clearance lets you tackle some of the tougher terrain that comes your way.

LEGENDARY SMOOTH INDEPENDENT REAR SUSPENSION (IRS)
The Sportsman was the world's first ATV with IRS, a feature that made it as popular as it is today. Its rock-solid design has 9.5" of travel to minimize body roll and keep the ride smooth.

POLARIS INTRODUCES TWO NEW RANGER WORK VEHICLES
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

MEDINA, MN- (March 1, 2014) Polaris Industries Inc. (NYSE: PII), the leading manufacturer of off-road vehicles, today announced the addition of two new vehicles to the Hardest Working, Smoothest Riding RANGER® utility line of side-by-sides. The new, three-passenger RANGER® Diesel HST and RANGER® Diesel HST Deluxe offer customers considering a utilitarian side-by-side the most comfortable and easy-to-use vehicles on the market.

 

"Polaris continues to innovate our product offerings to provide solutions to a wide variety of customer needs," said David Longren, vice president of Polaris' Off-Road Division. "In developing the RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe, we wanted to create vehicles that offered maximum comfort and ease-of-use to cater to the needs of the agricultural or rural lifestyle customer."

 

The introduction of the RANGER Diesel HST and HST Deluxe further exhibits Polaris' commitment to offer the most complete line of utility vehicles to satisfy the needs of the work customer. The new RANGER vehicles offer key features that are important to the agricultural and rural lifestyle customer such as diesel power with a hydrostatic transmission, an industry-exclusive treadle pedal, multi-link coil over De Dion rear suspension and, for the first time on a RANGER vehicle, full climate control which is standard on the RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe.

 

At the heart of the new models is a 24-horsepower YANMAR® diesel engine with a hydrostatic transmission which delivers incredible torque and power to get the job done. The transmission also features an engine braking system delivering a smooth and even deceleration while carrying a load for increased operator confidence. For comfortable traversing of virtually any terrain, loaded or unloaded, the RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe also feature Polaris' exclusive On-Demand True All-Wheel Drive which automatically engages all four wheels when more forward traction is needed and reverts back to two-wheel drive when the traction is no longer needed.

 

Unlike anything else in their category, the RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe offer an innovative treadle pedal allowing for travel in forward or reverse without shifting gears or taking hands off the wheel. This enables the operator to tackle the toughest jobs in less time with lower fatigue. To work harder and longer, the vehicles are equipped with a 90 amp alternator that provide best-in-class power for cold-weather starting, and give the operator the ability to power several accessories at a time for increased efficiency and effectiveness.

 

The multi-link coil over De Dion rear suspension provides the RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe with superior ride quality for any work application. The rear suspension supports a 1,250 pound cargo capacity and minimizes suspension sag when fully loaded. It also maintains class-leading ground clearance when trailering with its best-in-class 2,000 pound towing capacity. An extended length, pallet-sized rear dump box, with gas-assist lift on RANGER Diesel HST and electric lift on the RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe, provide ample space for hauling, and feature Polaris' exclusive Lock & Ride® cargo system for easy installation and removal of accessories.

 

For operator comfort, the RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe come standard with Hydraulic Power Steering to minimize driver fatigue. Cab ergonomics such as tilt steering with the 10-inches of motion, extra legroom, foot rests, larger seat width, and easy cab ingress and egress deliver optimal operator and passenger comfort. For even more comfort no matter what the outside conditions, the RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe also has a fully-enclosed, factory-installed cab with climate control including heat, defrost and air conditioning, and features 180-degree opening doors for easy entry and exit. A full line of cab, storage and vehicle protection accessories also are available for the vehicles to meet each customer's unique needs.   

 

The RANGER Diesel HST and RANGER Diesel HST Deluxe will be offered in Sage Green and are available at Polaris dealerships in April.

POLARIS TERRAINARMOR NON-PNEUMATIC TIRES FINALIST FOR TIRE TECHNOLOGY OF THE YEAR BY TIRE TECHNOLOGY INTERNATIONAL
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

 

Minneapolis, MN (February 20, 2014) - Polaris Industries Inc. (NYSE:PII) today announced the company's TerrainArmor™ Non-Pneumatic Tire (NPT) was a finalist for Tire Technology of the Year by Tire Technology International.

 

"Polaris would like to thank Tire Technology International for recognizing TerrainArmor tires as part of their short list for Technology of the Year," said Rich Haddad, general manager of Polaris Defense. "Polaris is the first manufacturer to bring NPT technology to the off-road consumer and defense markets, and we feel the technology will make a great impact on the future of our industry."

 

In 2013, Polaris Defense started offering TerrainArmor tires as an option for its military vehicles. This breakthrough technology has proven to be beneficial with military, emergency response and disaster relief teams.

 

"One of our challenges is getting to the point of need where people are, and usually debris stops us from doing that," said Kevin Smith of the Salvation Army. "Specifically in the Oklahoma City tornado disaster, the TerrainArmor tires allowed us to reach people who were not served for days."

 

Beyond having no flats, TerrainArmor tires offer a better center-of-gravity, improved cornering due to less pushing and the capability for the tires to be designed for a diverse range of applications.

 

The Tire Technology International Awards for Innovation and Excellence were presented in Cologne, Germany, on February 11.
