Named after the birthplace of Indian Motorcycle, the Indian Springfield is a versatile new addition to the 2016 lineup. Indian says the Springfield offers classic styling blended with modern technology for a purist's take on both touring comfort and urban versatility.
The Indian Springfield can be quickly converted into a cruiser with the quick-release windshield and saddlebags removed, or transformed into a high-capacity touring model with genuine Indian Motorcycle accessories. While maintaining the style and luxury for which Indian Motorcycle is renowned, the Springfield makes its own distinctive mark in the bagger and touring category.
Indian says that while it's related to the Indian Chief family, the Indian Springfield hard bagger was developed with a unique new pannier-compatible chassis for higher load capacity and a premium touring experience without sacrificing handling.
Other comfort features such as remote locking hard panniers and adjustable passenger floorboards come standard along with leather seating, anti-lock brakes, tyre pressure monitoring, electronic cruise control, and a powerful headlight and dual driving lights.
"The new Indian Springfield wasn't designed to fill a space in our lineup; it was built to fill a space in the hearts of riders who value the rich heritage and fine craftsmanship of Indian Motorcycle, and who want both a pure touring bike and a sleek urban cruiser," said Peter Harvey, Country Manager.
Powered by the Thunder Stroke 111 engine, the Indian Springfield delivers all the torque you need to conquer any highway in any weather. Its unique new chassis was designed to handle a wide load range, featuring cartridge forks and an air adjustable rear shock with 113mm of travel for safely transporting up to 242kg in style.
Touring comfort can be further enhanced with a full line of accessories.
Priced from $33,995, the Springfield will be in dealerships this month.
The Indian Springfield comes in Thunder Black and Indian Motorcycle Red. For more information, go to: www.indianmotorcycle.com.au.
