The Voice of Indian's Comeback — Robert Pandya | Throttle & Iron Podcast

Robert Pandya was the voice of Indian Motorcycle's comeback. As External Relations Manager during the Polaris relaunch, he's the guy who carried a 100-year-old name back into the spotlight — the press launches, the Chief reveal, the war stories nobody heard on stage. Through his firm SpokesPeople, he repped Indian, Victory and Slingshot for years, and he's spent over two decades in this industry — starting on a dealership floor, working with Aprilia, and ending up at the center of American motorcycling's biggest revival.And he didn't stop there. Robert founded Give A Shift — the no-BS roundtable about the future of motorcycling: why ridership is shrinking, why riders are aging out, and what actually fixes it. He helped build Discover the Ride, putting brand-new riders on bikes for the first time. And yeah — he rides a vintage Indian, and it's gorgeous.Tonight he pulls up a chair with us:🏍 Inside the Indian relaunch — the stories that never made the press releases🔧 Old iron: his vintage Indian and what riding it teaches you📉 Give A Shift — the honest state of the riding world, no fence-sitting🏔 Sturgis talk, hot takes on EVs and new riders, and YOUR questions live🔴 LIVE Tuesday 8PM ET — get in the chat and ask him anything.🏍 Join the crew: https://throttleandiron.com/membership🛒 Merch: https://shop.throttleandiron.com💬 Ask a question live: https://throttleandiron.com/liveNew episodes LIVE every Tuesday 8PM ET.Ride hard.
