Love those Indian motorcycles! They just keep getting better and better👍

@MotorcycleDemoRiders 10 месяцев назад

Me too! Obviously, I love the challenger, but this year, I really liked the Springfield. Came very close to buying it. Thanks for taking the time to comment. I appreciate you taking the time.

@StevenZerwas 5 месяцев назад

The 2023 has a different clutch and a different headlight. I had a 2022 Challenger and I now own a 2023 Pursuit premium. I absolutely love the electronically adjustable suspension. So easy and fantastic!

Nice video keep up the good work

Thank you, I'm trying and I appreciate you for taking the time to watch and for the comment! Stay safe

Nice review...I especially liked the fact you pointed out that you are 5'9 and could flat foot it. Did you have any problems being pulled a bit forward when turning the bars lock to lock? also were your legs comfotable in their bend. I am 5 inches taller, and if it feels off...I don't want that...too many stops to stretch out.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders 6 месяцев назад

Appreciate you taking the time to watch. I do have to adjust my position a bit when going lock to lock on the 2021 challenger I own. Not to bad just a slight body adjustment. As far as the legs I love the rider position. That said I did add highway pegs to my challenger to use on the longer rides. Since you are taller you may want to look at the taller seat vs the stock.

Great review

Thanks for taking the time to watch and for the comments. I appreciate it. Like that M109 in your profile pic. That's an awesome ride.

I had an Indian Challenger Limited last summer, put about 4k on it. It is a great mix of comfort/sportiness for the size. That motor is a blast. Just seemed to have a lot of bugs with the screen freezing up, and fit/finish is the worst out of the big brands. Tried the Road Glide too and it's not even close from a performance standpoint, but fit finish seemed way better. Settled on the R18-B this summer as it seemed like the best in between.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders Год назад

I would say that while I haven't had any screen freezing on my 2021 I do agree with you on the finish. I've found the clear coat very thin and hope that Indian will address that issue. Other than that its still the best for me in this catagory.

@hutch2142 Год назад

@@MotorcycleDemoRiders Glad to hear you haven't had the screen issues. Mine was a 2020 so it might have been that first model year thing. Well I swapped for the R-18b I'm not going to keep that after this summer. Either. Really came around with the fact that I'm just not a bagger guy.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders Год назад

@hutch2142 I didn't have a chance to ride the r18b sadly. I went to Detroit for a bmw event just to film(7 hour drive) and only got 3 bikes filmed! I was sad lol. So many options in bikes so you have to try them all! Well thats my opinion.

@chiefjoseph8154 Год назад

Polaris needs better handlebars or options. I’m 5’9” 202lb 30” inseam, lock to lock it pulls me up on the tank. That said it changes the dynamics of slow speed turns.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders Год назад

Not a lot of factory options for that true. Aftermarket is getting better but still limited. I can say the turning circle on this thing is huge. I know what you mean since we have the same dimensions. I've ridden a lot of bikes and this one is one of the most difficult to do a U-Turn. That said I don't practice it as often as I should.

@DarkGMarine 9 месяцев назад

Wait, you got a challenger up to 145?! Lmao man!

@MotorcycleDemoRiders 9 месяцев назад

The speedometer said 147, but I suspect it was doing 135 or so. No GPS. That said, it was fast enough for me. I'm too old to be doing anything faster.

@keithert Год назад

Great riding bike but really ugly front end.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders Год назад

She does have a very large front end! Personal preference like all motorcycles I suppose. Have you had the chance to ride one with the Lloydz tune?

@keithert Год назад

@@MotorcycleDemoRiders I rode a stock one. It rode pretty incredibly.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders Год назад

One day will need to get you my 2021 so you can film it for your channel!

@ericperry72 Год назад

See i love the front end but hate the 2023 RG CVO front end

@keithert Год назад

@@ericperry72I'm the exact opposite. I like the road glide but don't care for the Challenger. I'm not spending that much on a bike anyways so I guess my opinion doesn't matter.

@derfskittlers6125 11 месяцев назад

Prices are same as Harley now. Big mistake.

@MotorcycleDemoRiders 11 месяцев назад

True! One of the reasons I bought a used model. As I've been building the website up I've been looking at the price changes of models through the years and its amazing the amount they have increased in harley and indian without making a lot of changes.

Everything is “up!” Have you gone grocery shopping lately? Food prices have doubled!
