Indian Motorcycles to feature its new Thunder Stroke 116 in 2020

Indian Motorcycles to feature its new Thunder Stroke 116 in 2020

Thunder Stroke 116 is Indian Motorcycle’s largest engine production.

Indian Motorcycles be coming up with its largest engine yet for the new 2020 standards. The Thunder Stroke 116 was an upgrade for the Thunder Stroke 111 engine but now it will be featured in the brand’s touring and bagger bikes. This proves that there is a replacement for displacement in American cruiser and bagger-style models.

Indian Motorcycles made the announcement on Tuesday and stated that the new twin engine comes with a plethora of new adjustments. According to Robb Report, the Thunder Stoke 116 resembles a retro air-cooled engine. It comes with modern features such as rear-cylinder deactivation. This is great for cooler riding when temperatures exceed 59 F and the bike stops. This would be very helpful for riders in heavy traffic.

The firm will be installing the 116 in regular bikes in the 2020 model year. It used to be an upgrade kit for the 111-cubic inch Thunder Stroke engine. The first bikes to experience the 116 are the Roadmaster Dark Horse, Springfield Dark Horse and Chieftain Elite.

Other upgrades for 2020 include revamped version of Indian’s RideCommand infotainment system and app. It pairs a 7-inch touchscreen with an simple app on your phone to offer navigation with traffic and weather overlays. It also has infotainment features such as streaming music and phone integration.

The new Thunder Stroke 116 bikes are already arriving in dealers.
