Indian Motorcycle will be displaying its full product line at this weekend’s Progressive International Motorcycle Show in New York City. Starring on Indian’s exhibit are the new 2015 Indian Scout, the luxury touring Indian Roadmaster, the Chief Classic, the Chief Vintage, and the Chieftain.
“With a starting price of $10,999 and a perfect blend of power, balance, and handling that appeals to virtually every rider, we know the 2015 Indian Scout is the perfect holiday gift for the motorcycle,” said Steve Menneto, Vice President of Indian Motorcycle. “With the holidays fast approaching, we’re delighted to be in New York City sharing the affordable new Scout and the rest of our 2015 Indian Motorcycle lineup with our fans in the Big Apple.”
Aside from prominently displaying the 2015 line of bikes, the Indian Motorcycle Exhibit also features the Thunder Stroke 111 and Scout Engine cutaways. You can also hear a thunder Stroke 111 in action and much more. There will be vintage bikes on-hand too, including a beautifully restored 1935 Indian Chief, plus the board-tracker inspired Roland Sands “Track Chief” Custom, the Indian Scout Custom 101 as ridden on the Wall of Death in Sturgis, and much more.
Attendees will also be treated to two new custom Indian Scouts. Custom builder and Bonneville Flats land speed record holder Karlee Cobb of Klock Werks Kustom Cycles has created “Outrider” inspired by the rough and ready attitude of the new model. Outrider is a bike that pumps up the attitude of the 100 horsepower bike, in a design that will inspire home custom builders. Also being revealed for the weekend is “Scout 42” designed by John Shope, owner of custom shop Dirty Bird. The Scout has long been recognized for its sporting heritage framed by racing wins, world records and performances on the fabled “Wall of Death.” The custom work on John’s “Scout 42” was done to highlight that legacy and give his bike an almost sportbike aesthetic, while not detracting from its core handling package.
Both bikes will be unveiled before the press on Thursday, December 11 at the Javits Center, and will be on display for the reminder of the 2015 IMS tour. Karlee and John will be signing autographs in the Indian Motorcycle exhibit on Friday from 2-3 p.m. and 6-7 p.m., and again on Saturday from 11 a.m. – Noon, 2-3 p.m. and 5-6 p.m.
A great collection in the 2015 casual wear will be on display, including hats and gifts for sale and attendees get a free 2015 Indian Motorcycle calendar with a $75 or more purchase. Genuine Indian Motorcycle Accessories will also be on-display, including an array of quick-release Indian Scout accessories so riders can easily find the right fit. Attendees who stop by the exhibit and get their picture taken on an Indian motorcycle will receive a free gift, and Indian Motorcycle Rider’s Group members who show their membership card at the booth will receive an exclusive 2015 patch.
Stay tuned as we’ll bring you more details on the two custom Indian Scouts very soon.
