2024 Indian Roadmaster Elite: Specs, Price, and Features Buyer Guide

The 2024 Indian Roadmaster Elite stands as the flagship model of the Roadmaster lineup, positioned as a limited-production dresser with an MSRP of $41,999. Production is strictly limited to 350 numbered examples, with each motorcycle requiring 24 hours to complete. Sharing its chassis and Thunderstroke 116 V-twin engine with the Roadmaster Limited, the Elite package introduces high-end paintwork and custom detail upgrades.

The centerpiece of the design is the Tri-Tone Candy Paint executed by Gunslinger Custom Paint and Custom Painted Vehicles. It blends Indian Motorcycle Red Candy, Dark Indian Motorcycle Red Candy, and Black Candy alongside hand-painted Championship Gold pinstripes and blacked-out styling accents. The machine rolls on Precision Machined 10-spoke wheels featuring an all-new pattern. Other exterior updates include an electronically adjustable tinted, flared, low-profile windshield and polished Headdress floorboards for both the rider and passenger.

For entertainment, the PowerBand Audio system with Bass Boost features 12 speakers integrated across the fairing, trunk, and side cases. Indian states this setup is 50 percent louder than standard audio configurations, complemented by enhanced bass response, backlit switch cubes, and UnderGlow lighting for the speakers. Safety and visibility are bolstered by a Pathfinder Adaptive LED headlight that adjusts its beam based on the bike’s lean angle to illuminate corners, plus Pathfinder auxiliary LEDs built into the side cases.

Comfort features include heated and cooled seats for both rider and passenger, complete with color-matched stitching and black armrests for the passenger. A silhouette of the 1904 Indian Camelback—the first Indian model finished in Indian Motorcycle Red paint—is stamped onto the center console.

At the heart of this full-size touring machine sits an air- and oil-cooled 49-degree V-twin engine displacing 1890cc (115.3 ci). It features a 4.063-inch bore and 4.449-inch stroke (103.2 x 113 mm), an 11:1 compression ratio, and closed-loop EFI with a 54mm throttle body. The valvetrain uses a triple-cam pushrod setup with two valves per cylinder. The powerplant kicks out 126 lb-ft of torque at 2900 rpm, routed through a gear primary drive, a 6-speed constant mesh transmission, and a 152-tooth belt final drive. The exhaust system consists of a split dual setup with a crossover.

The chassis utilizes a non-adjustable 46mm front fork offering 4.7 inches of travel, paired with an adjustable rear air shock delivering 4.5 inches of travel. The 19×3.5-inch front and 16×5.0-inch rear wheels are wrapped in Metzeler Cruisetec tires (130/60-19 front, 180/60-16 rear). Braking duties are handled by dual 300mm front discs with 4-piston calipers and a single 300mm rear disc with a 2-piston caliper, with standard ABS.

Key dimensions include a 65.7-inch wheelbase, a 25-degree rake, and 5.9 inches of trail. The seat height sits low at 26.5 inches, fuel capacity is 5.5 gallons, and the curb weight is 890 pounds. The bike is finished exclusively in Indian Motorcycle Red Candy, Dark Indian Motorcycle Red Candy, and Black Candy.
