Since 1901, racing has been core to Indian Motorcycle’s DNA — a legacy defined by visionaries like Burt Munro on the Bonneville Salt Flats. Carrying that spirit forward, Indian Motorcycle, in partnership with S&S Cycle and Mission Foods, set out to Bonneville to see just how fast its King of the Baggers race bike could go. Piloted by Indian Wrecking Crew Rider and two-time King of the Baggers Champion Tyler O’Hara, the S&S-built Indian Challenger charged across the legendary Salt Flats — celebrating history and the timeless pursuit of speed.

United by passion and precision, S&S and Indian Motorcycle Racing brought decades of race-proven engineering to one of motorsports’ most iconic proving grounds. While knocking on the door of 200 mph,  O’Hara honored the legends who came before him with a new AMA 2000cc APS-AG record at 194.384 mph (previous record from 1972: 169.828 mph on a Triumph by J. Angerer).
