 Eagle Crusher Company, Inc.
When Ralph Rogers founded the Rogers Group some ninety years ago, he didn't know that it would become the largest privately held aggregate production company in the U.S. or that it would one day spin off a subsidiary to cash in on the recycling trend.
No doubt Ralph Rogers was on the cutting edge way back then, and the Rogers Group and its subsidiary are on the cutting edge now.
As the Rogers Group is running hard on its basic core products (coarse aggregate for ready mix and asphalt), their stationary plants may not be able to change modes to accommodate other products.

 Indian Motorcycle Memories - Jerry Hatfield Transcript
So Rogers had other things in mind other than building traditional motorcycles but he kept building those traditional Indian motorcycles to keep the dealers alive while at the same time, he could plan for a new range of lightweight motorcycles along the lines of the English motorcycles.

Rogers formed a partnership with an English firm so that English motorcycles could be sold through Indian dealerships while he improved the engineering of the lightweight models and continued to build a few more of the old large Indian chiefs.
