2024 Indian Roadmaster Elite
Baggers…. They are clearly my favourite style of cruiser, thanks to the extra comfort and luggage amenity on offer. Despite their gargantuan size, baggers also generally handle much better than a lot of the regular cruisers, and right now we are definitely getting spoiled for choice when it comes to Baggers coming out of America.
In 1904, Indian debuted their iconic red duco on the Indian Camelback. The new range-topping 2024 Indian Roadmaster Elite borrows those cues with its tri-tone Indian Motorcycle Red paint scheme, complete with what they dubb ‘a premium candy finish’.
Indian partnered with two of America’s most renowned custom paint shops, Gunslinger Custom Paint (GCP) in Colorado and Custom Painted Vehicles (CPV) out of Wisconsin to achieve the finish.
Only 350 will be made available worldwide. In Australia, the Roadmaster Elite will sell for $59,995 ride-away.
