Indian Motorcycles has a pair of pretties readying for a debut next year, and both of them could be revving a 1835cc engine…perhaps even bigger.
What’s the official source for this information?
Our news today comes from the ever-comparable Dennis Chung (Motorcycle.com), who obtained an “internal document” of Indian’s that shows the company’s intentions for future models:
– Dennis Chung, “Indian Roadmaster PowerPlus and Chieftain PowerPlus Coming for 2025” (Motorcycle.com) |
What can we expect for the 2025 Roadmaster PowerPlus and Chieftain PowerPlus?
Chung hasn’t yet been able to confirm whether the larger engine will be reserved for a limited edition beauty; we’ll either get both the Roadmaster PowerPlus and Chieftain PowerPlus with a bigger heart, or Indian will continue stacking their levels of exclusivity with more punch to accompany the pretty liveries.
Variants for this duo purportedly include the following options:
- Base Model
- Dark Horse
- Elite/Limited Edition
- Limited
Anything else exciting in the documents?
Ever the brand to think ahead, Indian Motorcycles mentions in their papers that there is potential for a 122ci version of the new engine “either as an engine upgrade or as a stock configuration.”
What is that in cc, you ask?
Here’s the formula we’ve been working with, courtesy of Convert Units:
1 cubic inches (ci) = 16.387064069264 cubic centimeters (cc) |
ergo, this potential engine is estimated to have
122 cubic inches (ci) = 1999.22 cubic centimeters (cc) of displacement. |
Yowzer.
Are you looking forward to hearing more about this 2025 duo and their big-bore, liquid-cooled heart(s)?
