The 2023 Indian lineup includes a few blacked out models and the Springfield Dark Horse is a menacing example which has a powerful, air-cooled Thunderstroke 116 engine that produces 126 ft-lbs of torque for unmatched power at low RPM and a smooth ride at any speed. Its streamlined stance, V-twin engine, and blacked out styling make a bold statement that matches its power.

Adding custom style to the bike, the mid-rise handlebars come standard for a relaxed and comfortable reach. Inspired by the look of custom bikes it has an open front fender exposing the 19-inch 10-spoke front wheel. This bike has the iconic Indian Motorcycle headdress leading the way and is a great example of what American motorcycle brands can do. The remote-locking hard saddlebags provide secure storage for weekend getaways.

Indian Motorcycles is known for their attention to detail and this is reflected in the paint work that includes a premium matte and gloss black finish front-to-back which makes a bold statement. The Indian Springfield Dark Horse comes loaded with ride-enhancing features like tire pressure monitoring, cruise control, and keyless ignition. Choose between three ride modes — Tour, Standard, and Sport — for an experience that’s customized to your riding style.

For stop-and-go traffic, the rear cylinder deactivation automatically shuts off the rear cylinder when the bike is stopped, providing more comfort in slow-moving traffic. Then when you hit the throttle, the rear cylinder seamlessly kicks back up to full power.
