The group expects to hit downtown Kent, CT between 1 and 3 p.m. on Saturday (Aug. 24).

Indian may now have a line-up of three attractive 2014 models, but it still doesn’t have a dealership in Connecticut. The closest dealer is Indian of New England in Worcester, MA. However, Indian’s website now lists Menneto Powersports in Clifton Park, NY (just north of Albany) as a new outlet for the company’s products.

RIDE-CT.com called owner Mike Menneto for details today, but was told wasn’t back yet from Sturgis, SD, where he went to witness the company’s unveiling of the new Chief Classic, Chief Vintage and Chieftain models on Saturday night.
