In a world where every other bike is the "best ever," Indian Motorcycle is actually serving up something special for 2025. The Pursuit Elite isn't just a bike—it's a mobile postcard of history, performance, and luxury. And with only 250 examples being built, most will only be able to dream about it. Or at least watch it pass by in slow motion... (in their heads, of course).
Indian is with the model Indian Pursuit Elite has raised the bar for aesthetics – and in a very tangible way. The three-tone scheme, featuring Black Candy, Black Forest Candy and hand-applied Championship Gold accents, looks as if the bike has just rolled off the catwalk. Each one has its own number – because exclusivity counts, right? Add to that the dark Dark Horse bodywork and the elegant PowerPlus 112 engine covers, and it’s clear: this isn’t a motorcycle, this is haute couture on two wheels.
Indian Pursuit Elite engine that could also power a smaller boat (or ego)
Underneath the shiny exterior lies a true mechanical heart – a V-twin liquid-cooled engine The PowerPlus 112 with a whopping 1834 cubic centimeters of displacement. Yes, that's the kind of number that will impress even the most cynical petrol enthusiast. With 126 horses (and not those on the pasture) and 181.4 Nm of torque, the Pursuit Elite easily devours the kilometers - and gets the heartbeat of any passerby going.
When technology takes the wheel (well, the steering wheel)
The Indian Pursuit Elite’s seven-inch RIDE COMMAND+ display isn’t just there for looks – it offers support for Apple CarPlay, GPS, Bluetooth and everything that goes into a modern digital experience. And to keep you entertained while you’re on the road, the 600-watt PowerBand audio system with six speakers will keep you entertained. Yes, you’ll hear every note of your favorite ballad… or the deep bass of a retro rock hit, even on the highway.
Safety and comfort? Practically a spaceship Indian Pursuit Elite
As futuristic as it may sound, the Pursuit Elite includes SmartLean technology with a 6-axis IMU sensor for tilt control. Plus, you get:
- electronically adjustable rear suspension,
- heated seats and handles (because why suffer?),
- adjustable LED lighting,
- blind spot and rear collision warning systems,
- electronically linked braking for optimal brake force distribution.
All this and more, without even thinking about the fear of falling. (The fear of envious glances is another story.)
Comfort you usually find in business class
The Indian Pursuit Elite is built for those who don't compromise. A 673mm seat height makes it accessible even for shorter riders, while a 2502mm length and 1670mm wheelbase ensure exceptional stability. Storage space? Over 140 litres! So you can take more than just a toothbrush and a spare pair of socks on the road. Luxury weekend getaway? With pleasure.
