Indian Signature Series unveiled

Indian Motorcycle has unveiled a range of bikes, dubbed the Signature Series, to commemorate the brand’s 125th anniversary. This special edition, unveiled on the Challenger, Chieftain Powerplus, Pursuit and Roadmaster Powerplus, will be produced in limited numbers.

  1. Indian Challenger and Chieftain Powerplus get a blacked-out finish
  2. Pursuit and Roadmaster get a 6-speaker system
  3. Powered by a 112ci engine that produces 126hp and 180Nm

The brand’s focus with the Signature Series has been clear – to showcase its craftsmanship with special finishes curated for this series. The brand says it is a multi-layer paint process delivering rich contrast and depth.

Indian Challenger:

The Challenger comes in a special shade of Abyss Metallic with a black base and red graphics. Additionally, the Challenger comes with a blacked-out finish for the engine along with an upgraded 400W Powerband audio system, remote locking saddlebags, cruise control and an electronically adjustable windshield, among other features.

The Signature Series Challenger is powered by a 112ci liquid-cooled V-twin engine that puts out 126hp and 180Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox. 

Indian Chieftain Powerplus:

The Chieftain Powerplus comes with a similar black base but with green graphics and the same blacked-out finish across the motorcycle. It is powered by the same 112ci liquid-cooled V-twin that produces 126hp and 180Nm of torque. Both the Challenger and Chieftain are quite similar underneath but mainly differ in their styling and handling characteristics. 

Indian Pursuit and Roadmaster Powerplus:

The Indian Pursuit and Roadmaster Powerplus come with a white base along with Revere Red and Vigilant Blue colour graphics that together make up the Indian ‘headdress logo’. These two motorcycles here get a chrome finish as opposed to a blacked-out finish on the Challenger and Chieftain Powerplus. In terms of features, the Powerband system comes with 6 speakers as opposed to 4 speakers on the Challenger and Chieftain Powerplus that have a total output of 600W.  

Both motorcycles are powered by the same 112ci liquid-cooled V-twin engine that produces 126hp and 180Nm of torque, mated to a 6-speed gearbox.
