Indian Pursuit: a large touring motorcycle, engine and what to know when buying
Indian Pursuit — produced since 2022, this large-displacement touring motorcycle comes with the PowerPlus engine. We look at the versions, engine and what to check when buying used.
Pursuit at a glance
The Pursuit is built for long journeys: it features a front trunk, saddlebags, a rear trunk and plenty of comfort. Conceptually, it's close to the Challenger, but more suited to touring than sporty riding.
It's fairly new, so there aren't many used examples on the market yet.
Versions
The most common Pursuit trims are the Dark Horse, Limited and Elite. They differ in finish, colours and equipment, such as suspension, sound system and heating functions.
As equipment can vary by year, check the specific motorcycle's specification when buying.
Engine and gearbox
It's powered by the PowerPlus 108 — a liquid-cooled V-twin (around 1768 cc), with output of roughly 120 hp. The gearbox is a six-speed manual.
The motorcycle comes with ABS, traction control, cruise control, several riding modes and a large TFT screen with navigation.
What to check when buying a used Pursuit
Check if there's manufacturer's warranty and if it's transferable. Ask for the service history, as this is expensive and complex machinery.
Test all the electronic functions: screen, navigation, heating, sound system, cruise control. Check for any error messages.
Check the side and rear boxes, mounts, tyres, brakes and suspension for signs of damage.
