Indian 1811 SPRINGFIELD 2017

Menus

Indian completes its bagger offer with a machine full of charisma. Any good manufacturer of American motorcycles (or related) must present one or more in its range. Here is the role assigned to Springfield. She leaves the classic side to the Chief Vintage with her leather suitcases. For her, the game will be two-fold, because the machine knows how to transform according to moods. Will you taste it Cruising or Touring style ?

She goes from one to the other. A dual identity that allows you to ride completely relaxed during Sunday trips or to establish a route plan for 4-digit mileage. With all its majesty, the Springfield is as ready for highways as it is for undressing. The windshield is large, predicting good protection. A desire for fresh air before leaving or for a more custom style? It can be removed in less than a minute without tools. Similar findings for rigid suitcases, which can be dismantled without a screwdriver or a 12 mm wrench and without revealing an unsightly securing system. It’s clean, practical, and of high quality. While being technological. The compartments can be locked remotely, by remote control or from the dashboard.

Could the 1811 Springfield be stripped down only a discoverable Indian Chief? Certainly not. The brand has gone a little further in the process. This large coaster benefits from a reinforced rear loop for additional luggage as well as an optional trunk (up to 242 kilos of transport in all). If the mixed steel / aluminum frame is common to the other models in the range, its front axle should become more lively because the caster and caster angle have been tightened. A relative notion, partly conditioned by the fairly generous weight of the machine. 388 kilos fully packed, half a dozen refrigerators under the handlebars, that requires a certain equanimity in driving.

Its name calls history. Springfield is the city where the brand was born. The long Massachusetts summers are present even in the fins of the big twin. Like all the huge models in the range, this bagger features the Thunderstroke 111. Deep, serene, muscular in the fat of American steel, this block is as sublime to look at as it is tasty to drive. A good big machine full of torque and character, as only the Ricans do, with hints and hiccups of V8. It is estimated to be around 75-80 horsepower. An importance once the bowls are in motion? None. It is more the effort of 14.1 Mkg at only 2600 rpm that calls out. Breath to thrill the arms, the senses, the back. For the latter’s serenity, the Springfield is equipped like the other Chiefs with a pneumatic shock absorber. The saddle rises only 660 mm from the ground.

Drive far, the 20.8 liters of the tank allow it. Regarding equipment, the Indian has ABS, cruise control, front and rear crash bars, tire pressure monitoring system, keyless start, chrome manual controls, double saddle in studded leather, a remarkable level of finish and a fairly ‘select’ entry ticket. For accessories, the offer is not lacking, with 180 references intended for the Springfield.
By offering a quick and easy disassembly of its Touring equipment, the Springfield directly shakes up the Harley Switchback; in a more premium, more luxurious register. Much more expensive too. What offer the modularity of the average Tourer Davidson with the presence of a Road King. And prestige of another caliber. Indian has recreated a very staid identity bordering on elitism. The Springfield thus asserts itself as a bagger of high lineage..
