2021 Indian Springfield | First Ride and Review 

I bought this exact bike (color and all) the week Indian announced them. The dealership I went to got it on September 15th (the day their website updated the new models) and I picked her up on the 19th. After upgrading to a stage 2 kit, sissy bar with a luggage rack and 16" ape hangers, I can safely say it is my favorite bike I've ever ridden. I recommend it to everyone. Also, the color is oh so sexy.

I love my 2019 Springfield. It is leaps and bounds better than Harley as far as comfort and quality. If you aren't one to fall into the "I need to be like everyone else and buy a Harley," then I recommend checking out an Indian bike first. They are so sweet!

I bought this exact bike as well! Literally this very bike that he is riding and man do I love it!

No denying it, that is one beautiful motorcycle.👍👍

So my life has changed!! I traded in my 2021 Indian Scout Bobber Twenty for a 2018 Indian Springfield today! OMGoodness - I really enjoyed my bobber but I just moved up to a Cadillac SUV. What a smooth ride and low end power. I am absolutely in love with my Springy!

Good to see you on the road again NC. Had a look at this new bike the other day, and must admit, she looks good. Decisions for a new bike are getting tougher! Cheers for the review brother, stay safe.

Love those Indians! They just get better and better!

Fyi, you can get the color matching trunk for it. Touring seats from roadmaster fit it too.

As an owner of a stunning 2019 Indian Springfield in gray and burgundy, I can vouch that the Springfield is cruiser heaven, all day, every day.

Needs and deserves bassani true duals and mid rise handlebars. I'm partial to Bassani true duals because the rear cylinder should exit stage left. Front cylinder should exit right or straight back. Gives you a better balance in pipe length.

The Springfield Classic is the most beautiful bike I have ever seen.

The Challenger is just that. Challenging Harley, Honda and BMW while at the same time seeking a younger audience. I guarantee you that a quick shift (like the BMW 1600) will someday be available for the Challenger. Mark my words.

The exaxt one I want. Possibly with the stage 3 116

Somewhere down the line I may look at one of these. But who knows what else they may come out with in the future? I prefer the power and a water cooled engine of the Challenger, but the traditional lines of this or the Chieftain

That's it. That's the bike I want. The model and color. I want to add the storage/passanger goodies on the back, but that's it all the same.

I like your plan...win the lottery and have 1 of each!

The Indian Springfield its a fantastic Bike!!!

Do a Roadmaster Edit: I didn't knew you already did it, I saw it. It was fantasting

Summer presents. I Like that allot.

So pretty!

You're gonna wanna wait until after the breakin to do anything with the exhaust.

How's the buffering? How's the heat? I test rode an Indian a few years back and it was insanely hot! I heard they took a page out of HD playbook and worked on the heat management system (Pre-M8 were crazy hot, too!).

What is the Top Speed of this Springfield?

Get the flip shield. It's far superior.

This is by far the best bang for the buck. Add 12-16 in. Hangers (your preference), oil cooler (You're an idiot if you don't) Chrome protection on the bags to compliment (offset) the chrome strip on front fender, fox shock and some rubber on the mustach you're golden and can start saving for the true dual cat delete

Collect them all!

This technically isnt a touring bike right? If that is the case why have that mode? Can you go long distances on this bike?

Did you notice excessive heat rolling off the engine? When I rode a Springfield, I experienced buffeting to the point of losing my line of vision.

How much is the largest stage 116 kit for that 111?

Is it worth the money to upgrade from a scout?

,,,,, Indian Power !

Fuel gage!

No red switch gear. I give it an A.

Is the windshield easily detachable?

Yep, win the lottery and buy them all!

Do u like the vintage ?

I won't ride a bike with no windshield that is the first thing I buy if I buy a bike without one. Not only is it make the ride more enjoyable it is a safety issue. I had an on coming car though a piece of tailpipe it hit in the road up and it hit my windshield first destroying it but deflected the tailpipe from a direct hit in my face. I looked over the Indian Chief before I bought my Harley FLSTC it was a cost issue that made up my mind.

THis guy doesn't know crap about bigger bikes😊

Just traded my '17 chief classic for this bike.

Make it half of what the vintage is and WHALLA! You're welcome.

People like you always have „requests to ride this or that model“. Yeah, of course...

what no change for years

That is a 2020, not 2021

AND GET RID OF THAT FRONT FENDER! That belongs EXCLUSIVELY upon the vintage.

You talk tooo much! I'm sure I speak for others in that we'd like to hear the bike just a little more

You've sold me. Headed to the Real Motor Company to buy a Road King. Why buy a clone with a ohony history? No hard feelings. Indian died in 1953. No Harley copies like Polaris.
