A couple of updates...
The other day I visited my local Indian dealer. They had a cutaway of the new Thunder Stroke 111 engine, and another "live" engine on a display stand.
I don't know tar from shinola about motor innards, but it looks very stout and is beautiful.
They also fired up the working engine for me. It sounds great and the throttle response is very prompt. They're quoting over 115 TQ, and I believe them. It was also pretty darn smooth at idle and at revs.
And rev it does.
Yesterday I also did an Indian dealer search and there are a bunch more than there were a month ago. They claim their will be many more by year's end.
The reveal of the Chief is August 3...
