I pick her up next week. I have to do my week of work in the oil patch first, but when I get back she's all mine. ( stock photo)

Their engines keep growing. I thought 111 was the largest they made. Give it a few years and there will be no need for Boss Hoss

CONGRATULATIONS !!! I like Indians.

Very nice but not a fan of those wheels...

As for the capacity... 1900cc is too many.

It's been scientifically proven (or at least so I claim ) that the optimal capacity for a motorcycle engine is 1402cc. 1380cc is second most optimal.

The former happens to be (by sheer coincidence) the capacity of the Suzuki GSX1400 which I happen to own and ride.
The second is the Moto Guzzi California 1400 - which I'd own if I could afford one.

A nominal 14 is the magic number

Ooooh very nice! I prefer Indians over HD personally although baggers aren't my thing as a rider. Great looking bike!

Then by your math, the 114 in my Harley [1,869cc] is the magic number and the optimal m/c engine size It contains the "14" and is therefore superior to the 1402 and 1380. A close second is the 650 in my KZ650SR, which contains a 5 [1+4], has 1 engine with 4 cylinders [14] and has a 6 in it [1-3+8+0]

@Drakhen99

ah, no

 

[Drakhen99]

I dunno, my KZ was running aces last week, got a good video out of that one. Then, my wife's Sporty 1200 Custom ran great, got a good vid out of that. Rode my 114 today and it felt good also. Those 3 engines must be perfect sizes LOL.

The perfect engine size is the one on your bike
