Indian 1811 Springfield 2020

Menus

Since its return, Indian has not been content with offering top-of-the-range cruisers. He also wants to shake up, push his lifelong rival, Harley-Davidson, to its limits. And it works. Both quickly draw evolutions to mark their territory. In Milwaukee, the wind has seriously blown with the birth of the Muilwaukee Eight engine. In Springfield, we retorted with an increase in the power of the Thunderstroke in 2018; and with the appearance of driving modes in 2019. The force is there, electronics make it difficult for you:
– ‘Tour’ mode offers progressive acceleration for optimal smoothness of driving.
– The ‘Standard’ mode is characterized by a still responsive throttle control and a power delivered in a balanced and progressive manner.
– Finally, ‘Sport’ mode offers instant throttle response and more aggressive power distribution for even sharper acceleration..
That’s not all. There is a mode of deactivation of the rear cylinder in the engine management. When stationary, the twin can become mono to limit heat emissions. A function that is interrupted gently when you restart the machine. And what machine…

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 given for a little over 80 horsepower. The Springfield however sees with a somewhat envious eye its sister Dark Horse, this one taking advantage of the new block 116. An importance once the bowls in movement? None. It is more the effort of 15.3 Mkg at only 2100 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 ex Harley Switchback and the Sport Glide; 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..
