Indian Motorcycle is turning the throttle wide open for 2025, stacking its King of the Baggers lineup with enough talent to make even Harley-Davidson sweat.
The legendary Wrecking Crew—a name steeped in history—returns to the tarmac with a fresh three-rider factory team, led by reigning champ Troy Herfoss, two-time titleholder Tyler O’Hara, and MotoGP veteran Loris Baz.
Are You Ready for the 2025 King of the Baggers and the Indian Motorcycle Wrecking Crew?
The battlefield? The S&S-built Indian Challenger, a PowerPlus 112-fueled rocket ship proving that displacement alone doesn’t win races—engineering does. Herfoss stormed onto the scene in 2024, carving up the field with seven wins. O’Hara, a King of the Baggers pioneer, remains as fearless as ever, while Baz, the Frenchman with a MotoGP pedigree, brings a touch of European finesse to this all-American dogfight.
But Indian isn’t just betting on its factory riders. With an $80,000 contingency program and a 2025 Indian Challenger Dark Horse up for grabs, privateers like Cameron Petersen and Kyle Ohnsorg will be swinging for the fences on their own Indian-built machines. The Wrecking Crew, now backed by S&S, Progressive Insurance, and Mission Foods, isn’t just here to race—they’re here to dominate.
Mark your calendars: March 6, Daytona International Speedway. The baggers are coming, and Indian aims to leave its rivals in the rearview—again.
