Patent images of a heavy Indian have appeared on the Internet, which could be based on the new Challenger, but has a more conservative and classic style.
The powerful front fairing has been given a more classic design and the headlights are more subtle. The windshield doesn’t seem to be adjustable.
The side leg shields are new. In addition to the windbreak, the speakers for a sound system could also be built in, which has so far been pure speculation.
The motorcycle looks like a heavy cruiser with which you could comfortably go very long tours.
The frame of the machine is a tricky monocoque design. The air for the engine is drawn in through three openings in the frame, filtered and directed into the fuel system.
Appropriate systems could be difficult to maintain, but in this case the air filter seems easy to replace. After the tank has been removed you can remove an inspection panel under which the filter is located.
Because of stricter emission regulations, motorcycle manufacturers are increasingly forced to deviate from air-cooled engines and also to set liquid cooling.
