AMERICAN MOTORCYCLE DEALER - OCTOBER 2019
Indian Motorcycle's 2020 line-up of
performance accessories for the
Thunder Stroke 111 and Thunder
Stroke 116 "significantly modify the
overall look, sound and performance
of each engine."
The stage-1 slip-on exhaust, available
in black or chrome, improves sound for
both the Thunder Stroke 111 and
Thunder Stroke 116. Indian
Motorcycle's new stage-1 oval slip-on
muffler kit and stage-1 performance
air intake together increase
horsepower by +4% with the Thunder
Stroke 111 and +8% with the Thunder
Stroke 116.
By adding the stage-2 performance
cams, riders will gain +13% more
horsepower when compared to a
stock Thunder Stroke 111. The Thunder
Stroke 116 stage-2 performance kit,
which includes cams, higher flowing
fuel injectors and throttle body,
produces a +17% horsepower boost
when paired with both stage-1
accessories.
"Riders can also upgrade any Indian
Motorcycle model packing the
Thunder Stroke 111 with its Thunder
Stroke 116 stage-3 big bore kit, which
produces +20% more horsepower
when compared to a stock Thunder
Stroke 111.
"For riders looking to add additional
passenger accommodations, Indian
Motorcycle offers headdress
passenger floorboard pads for added
cushion to combat road vibration and
match the currently available
headdress rider floorboard pads, 12-
inch quick release passenger sissy bar
and a new, more modern styled
passenger backrest pad. Additionally,
Indian Motorcycle will offer 12-inch
ape hanger handlebars for all Chief
and Springfield models."
