Indian Motorcycle Marks 125 Years With Limited-Edition Collector Models

Indian Motorcycle has introduced a special set of anniversary motorcycles to celebrate 125 years of American motorcycle heritage. The company has created a limited global lineup of three collector-focused models, each featuring hand-painted finishes, exclusive badging, and premium equipment. Although these motorcycles carry a strong collector appeal, the brand has ensured they remain practical enough for regular riding.

Signature Anniversary Paint and Unique Identity

All three motorcycles share a special anniversary theme built around a 125th Anniversary Red with Black Crystal paint finish. Each unit is hand-painted and decorated with detailed pinstriping that subtly references the milestone celebration. In addition, every motorcycle carries its own serial number, which strengthens its collectible value. These details highlight the brand’s focus on craftsmanship rather than mass production.

Modern Technology Adds Everyday Usability

Despite their classic presentation, the anniversary models include modern features to support daily use. Each bike comes equipped with the RIDE COMMAND+ system, which includes either a 4-inch or 7-inch full-colour touchscreen display. Through this system, riders can access navigation, maintenance reminders, ride statistics, and bike information.

In addition, the display supports connected services such as vehicle location tracking and customizable gauges. Riders can also connect their phones through Bluetooth or USB to manage music and calls when paired with a compatible helmet communicator. 

Heritage, Performance, and Touring Focus Across the Range

Each model in the collection highlights a different riding style. One motorcycle leans strongly into classic design cues, combining wire wheels, vintage-style handlebars, and valanced fenders with modern electronics. This version uses the brand’s air-cooled Thunderstroke engine, which is known for strong low-end torque and relaxed cruising ability.

The other model in the lineup embraces an aggressive and stripped down appearance. It employs a liquid-cooled engine that is tuned to higher performance as well as bobbed fenders and machined wheels. The strategy makes it more sporty in character and yet preserves the anniversary theme with special badging and detailing.

The third motorcycle in the collection focuses on touring comfort and long-distance capability. It features a frame-mounted fairing, premium audio system, custom seating, and enhanced rider controls. As the most feature-rich model of the trio, it represents the brand’s flagship touring experience.
