The Spec'd take

Why it stands out

  • Sportiest-handling bagger in the range, with an inverted front fork and adjustable Fox rear shock
  • Most powerful engine platform currently available from the brand in India outside the top Roadmaster Elite
  • Full LED lighting and dual-channel ABS across all trims

Worth knowing

  • Confirmed on indianmotorcycle.in: the newer liquid-cooled PowerPlus 112 engine (122 hp / 181.4 Nm) has reached India on the Limited with 112 Package trim, resolving the earlier uncertainty over whether this engine was India-market yet
  • Premium Limited trim pricing sits close to the entry-level Pursuit and Roadmaster tier
  • CBU import, made to order, so wait times can be long
