KING OF THE BAGGERS

Indian Motorcycle racing heritage is defined by three models that embody its competitive spirit. The Scout laid the groundwork with its agility and dominance in early flat track racing. The FTR750, a modern racing icon, has secured 10 Grand National Championships with legendary rider Jared Mees. And the Indian Challenger—a powerhouse in the bagger racing scene—features the PowerPlus 112 engine, a liquid-cooled V-twin that has earned three podium-topping finishes. Together, these motorcycles represent Indian’s unwavering commitment to one goal in racing: to win.

From the board track battles of the early 1900s to today’s King of the Baggers championships, Indian Motorcycle’s racing legacy runs deep. Early icons like the original Wrecking Crew of Bobby Hill, Bill Tuman and Ernie Beckman helped shape the foundation of American motorcycle racing. The Indian Challenger, powered by the liquid-cooled PowerPlus 112, continues that tradition with cutting-edge performance. The Legends to Kings series honors the pioneers of speed while celebrating the modern-day kings of track racing.
