Meet the 2026 Indian Motorcycle® Roadmaster® 125th Anniversary Edition in 125th Anniversary Red with Black Crystal—a full-dress touring machine that looks like it rolled out of a celebration and straight onto the open highway. The deep anniversary red pops with rich contrast, while the Black Crystal accents bring a classy, after-hours sparkle that feels right at home under streetlights or morning sun. It’s the kind of paint that makes you take the long way to every destination—just for the extra time in the saddle.
Twist the throttle and the Thunder Stroke 116 V-twin answers with that unmistakable big-torque attitude. With 1890cc (116ci) on tap and 126 ft-lbs of torque arriving at a low 2,900 rpm, this air-cooled, pushrod OHV two-cylinder is all about effortless shove—smooth, confident acceleration that suits touring perfectly. Fuel injection keeps response crisp, and the 6-speed manual transmission makes every roll-on feel intentional, whether you’re gliding through town or stretching out into the horizon. Power reaches the rear wheel via a belt final drive, delivering that clean, composed feel touring riders appreciate.
On the road, it carries itself like a true long-haul flagship. The aluminum frame helps give it a solid, planted character, and the stance is pure Roadmaster: a long 104.6-inch body, a relaxed 65.7-inch wheelbase, and a comfortable 28-inch seat height that makes settling in feel natural. Up front, a 46mm telescopic fork with 4.7 inches of travel helps keep the ride composed. Out back, a twin-sided swingarm with a single shock provides 4.5 inches of travel, plus air adjustment and preload capability—so you can dial things in for a passenger, luggage, or both.
And this bike is absolutely built for “both.” The one-piece leather seat is made for two, and the passenger gets a fixed backrest that says, “Yes, we’re staying out all day.” Floorboards for driver and passenger add that relaxed, big-mile posture—feet where you want them, not where they’re forced to go.
When the pace changes, the braking system is ready. Dual hydraulic front discs with 4-piston calipers and a 300mm (11.8-inch) rotor size bring strong, controlled stopping power, matched by a rear hydraulic disc with a 2-piston caliper and the same 300mm diameter. Rolling stock comes from aluminum wheels and tubeless Metzeler CRUISETEC™ tires—130/60B19 up front and 180/60R16 in the rear—bringing a confident touring footprint with H speed ratings.
Touring also means bringing your world with you, and the Roadmaster delivers. Hard side cases on both sides provide serious storage capacity—36.2 gallons (159.5 liters) total—so weekend escapes and long-route plans don’t require compromise. Add in the rear rack storage (fiberglass) and a 5.5-gallon fuel tank, and the road starts to look a lot wider.
The cockpit keeps the ride modern and connected with RIDE COMMAND™ GPS, mobile app instrumentation, Bluetooth® audio, and five speakers controlled right from the handlebar. LED lighting helps you stand out and see clearly, while the adjustable windshield (with lowers) lets you tune airflow on the fly. And when the temperature dips, heated grips for the rider help keep the good times going.
Bold in 125th Anniversary Red with Black Crystal, comfortable for two, and powered by torque-first muscle, this Roadmaster 125th Anniversary Edition turns every ride into a rolling victory lap—no special occasion required.
