The 2025 Indian PowerPlus lineup has arrived, and I had the opportunity to test these bikes in the stunning landscape of Lake Las Vegas and the Valley of Fire. With an upgraded 112 cubic inch PowerPlus motor, new rider-assist technologies, and refined aerodynamics, Indian has taken their motorcycles to the next level. This review will cover the engine performance, ride quality, handling, technology, and new safety features introduced in this lineup. The New 112ci PowerPlus Engine: More Power, More Fun Indian has built upon its 108ci liquid-cooled PowerPlus engine, upgrading it to a 112ci V-twin that delivers: 126 horsepower at 5,500 RPM 133 foot-pounds of torque at 3,600 RPM 60-degree V-twin configuration Overhead cams, four valves per cylinder, and dual throttle bodies Compared to the 2023 Indian Pursuit Dark Horse I tested for a year, the 2025 PowerPlus engine offers more power and better low-end torque. The real question is how this translates to real-world performance, which I explored during the test ride. SUPPORT US AND SHOP IN THE OFFICIAL LAW ABIDING BIKER STORE First Impressions: Chieftain PowerPlus & Redesigned Fairing I was assigned the 2025 Indian Chieftain PowerPlus, and right away, the bike felt incredibly well-balanced. Despite its size, it was easy to manage, and the redesigned batwing fairing is noticeably sleeker and more aerodynamic. The new fairing design includes: Separated dual vents for better wind management More refined lower sections for improved airflow Wind tunnel-tested shape for high-speed stability While the sharknose fairing remains largely unchanged, the batwing updates make a real difference in handling and rider comfort. Riding Performance: How Does the 112 PowerPlus Feel? Once in the saddle, I could instantly feel the higher-revving nature of the PowerPlus engine. The torque kicks in at 3,600 RPM, pushing the rider back in the seat. This engine thrives in the higher RPM range, delivering a sporty, performance-driven feel. At 5,500 RPM, the bike produces 126 horsepower, making it one of the most powerful V-twin touring motors available. For those who prefer a more traditional low-end torque experience, Indian still offers the Thunderstroke air-cooled engine on select models. This gives buyers a choice between classic American cruising or high-performance touring. CHECK OUT OUR HUNDREDS OF FREE HELPFUL VIDEOS ON OUR YOUTUBE CHANNEL AND SUBSCRIBE! Suspension & Braking: Inverted Forks and Radial-Mounted Brembos Suspension Upgrades Front: 43mm inverted forks with 5.1 inches of travel, offering more rigidity and precision than conventional forks Rear: Fox Monoshock with 4.5 inches of travel The inverted forks provide: Less flex under braking More precise steering feedback Better handling in aggressive riding situations Braking System Dual 320mm semi-floating rotors (front) 298mm floating rotor (rear) Brembo radial-mounted calipers Radial-mounted brakes provide better rigidity and performance compared to standard axial-mounted ones, making this a high-performance touring machine.

Innovative products for Harley-Davidson & Goldwing Affordable chrome, lighting, and comfort products Ciro 3D has a passion for design and innovation Rider Assist Features: New Innovations for 2025 Indian has introduced some of the most advanced rider-assist features on an American-made V-twin. These include: Standard Features ABS 6-axis IMU lean-angle detection with traction control and ABS. Drag torque control to prevent rear-wheel lockup on aggressive downshifts New for 2025 Hill Hold Control – Keeps the bike from rolling backward when stopped on an incline. Electronically Linked Braking – If the rider applies only the front or rear brake, the system automatically applies the other for better balance, stopping, and safety. Blind Spot Detection – Warns riders with mirror-mounted yellow LED indicators when a vehicle is in their blind spot. Rear Collision Warning – Alerts riders when a vehicle is following too closely and pulses the brake light to get the driver's attention. These safety features make a significant difference, particularly for riding in heavy traffic conditions. Comfort, Ergonomics, and Ride Quality The 2025 Chieftain PowerPlus offers a well-designed rider triangle, making it comfortable for long-haul rides. Stock seat: Well-padded with excellent lower back support Floorboards: Spacious and positioned well for comfortable leg placement Adjustable windscreen: Allows riders to set their preferred wind protection One ergonomic improvement Indian could consider is adjusting the brake pedal placement slightly forward for better foot positioning. Sponsor-Butt Buffer CLICK HERE Want to ride longer? Tired of a sore and achy ass? Then fix it with a high-quality Butt Buffer seat cushion? New Patrons: Michael Richey of Kokomo , Indiana Gary Strainer of Tampa, Florida Jorge Luna of Anoka, Minnesota If you appreciate the content we put out and want to make sure it keeps on coming your way then become a Patron too! There are benefits and there is no risk. Technology & Infotainment: Ride Command System The 7-inch Ride Command system remains largely unchanged from previous Indian models, offering: GPS Navigation Bluetooth Connectivity Apple CarPlay Customizable Ride Modes (Rain, Standard, Sport) While functional, the system could use an update. Given the premium price of these bikes, a fully digital dashboard with faster processing and a smoother interface would be a welcome upgrade. Final Thoughts: A High-Performance Touring Machine After spending an entire day riding through the Valley of Fire, I can confidently say the 2025 Indian PowerPlus lineup delivers a fun, powerful, and well-engineered riding experience. What Indian Got Right More horsepower and torque than the previous 108ci motor Sleek, aerodynamic batwing and shark nose fairing Inverted forks and radial-mounted Brembo brakes Blind spot detection and rear collision warning, a first on an American V-twin Improved heat management compared to past models Areas for Improvement Ride Command system needs an update Cable clutch should be upgraded to a hydraulic system Large radar unit on the rear could be better integrated for aesthetics Who Is This Bike For? This bike is best suited for riders who want: A powerful, high-performance touring motorcycle The latest rider assist features for safety and comfort A sporty V-twin experience with high-revving power For those who prefer a traditional low-end torque cruiser, the Thunderstroke models might be a better fit. Final Verdict: Worth It? If you are looking for a modern, high-performance bagger that retains the classic Indian motorcycle charm, the 2025 PowerPlus lineup is an excellent choice. This bike delivers an exciting riding experience, blending power, comfort, and cutting-edge technology.

On this episode of The Big Number, Tom Haberstroh & Dan Devine dive deep into the seismic shift in the Golden State Warriors' performance since Jimmy Butler's arrival. From being one of the sloppiest teams in the NBA to now leading the league in free throws made with fewer turnovers than ever, Butler has reshaped the Warriors into a mistake-free juggernaut. The pair break down his impressive individual stats, including how he's driving efficiency on both ends without dominating the ball, and what his presence has done to increase Steph Curry's scoring, pushing him to one of his most efficient stretches ever. Could Butler's addition be the missing piece to a Warriors' NBA title run?Tom & Dan also take a close look at how the Warriors have adjusted in non-Steph minutes, with Jimmy's impressive numbers filling the gap when Curry sits, and discuss the effectiveness of their new small-ball lineup. Plus, the impact of Jonathan Kuminga's potential return and how his presence could further bolster Golden State's depth as they head into the postseason. With Butler's impact stretching from offense to defense, could this midseason trade go down as one of the best in NBA history?(1:15) - Big Number: Jimmy Butler revitalizes Golden State(16:25) - Steph's improved shooting(22:00) - Warriors' new & improved net rating(24:15) - Golden State small-ball starting five(28:00) - Kuminga to return after ankle injury(33:50) - Over/under scoreboard update(34:25) - Shaq forgets who's coaching the Pistons

Kamala Harris is the American High Speed Rail candidate.Very expensive. Popular with liberal city dwellers. But ultimately a lot of hype that leads to very little.While she isn't necessarily a poor candidate in every context, she struggled twice on the national stage with median voters first within and then outside of her party. I'm not going to do a blow by blow of her campaign because this is a eulogy and eulogies are broad. So let's start here:Kamala Harris is from California. Not a bygone version of California. Not Ronald Regan's California. Not Roger Rabbit's California. The California over the last two decades. One that saw the rise of San Francisco as a financial and cultural hub AND post-pandemic has become synonymous with progressive failure.That California. If you are a California politician the first decision you need to make when explaining yourself to the nation is: does California suck right now or not?If you say it sucks, then you explain how your beloved home state has fallen victim to the plight of the modern world. Blame capitalism, blame a lack of morals, decry the spread of drugs… if you want to get spicy, blame local or state government. Or you can decide California is great actually, blame the media for spreading a distorted image. Kamala Harris did neither. The only time she mentioned California was in her backstory. Oakland was a prop. But for Presidential candidates, your past is your governing philsophy. And I don't mean the bullet points she'd recite, (did you know she prosecuted trans-national gangs?) I mean your leadership. Are you a head cracker? Are you a unifier? Are you a turnaround artist? Are you a technocrat? With Kamala, we got a little bit of everything. Which means we got nothing. And I'll give credit to her campaign staff, who I didn't think did a great job, because I don't know that they had much to work with.Kamala Harris lacks dynamism and appeals to a limited audience. She is a highly-touted college quarterback who underperforms in the pros. Based on their initial promise they get a second shot on another team only to be terrible there too. Why do we think the third time is the charm?She emerged from her tenure as San Francisco Attorney General as a let's-enforce-the-laws liberal and was lauded for it. By the time she became California AG she had liberal wins to notch including legalizing gay marriage. Her election to Senate from the one-party state while impressive for her resume is not indicative of someone with political skill or campaign savvy. Her early wins say more about her than anything that came after because California was on the ascendancy after that. The nation was begining to agree with positions California had taken in the last century: specifically on marijuana and LGBT freedoms. The tide rose and her boat with it. But to be clear: she's a system product. An assembly line politico. Sleek and shiny but quite possibly purposeless.We saw this when she leaned into progressive messaging while running for president in 2020, it backfired. Some blamed this on her embracing "woke" politics or poor advisers, but the real issue was deeper: she's never had to dig deep and find a compelling version of herself before. She certainly didn't find it in 2019.True authenticity emerges when voters believe in a politician's core identity—even if they disagree with their views. They sense an underlying worldview driving the candidate forward. Bill Clinton, Barack Obama, and Donald Trump all possessed this quality. Harris notably lacked it, exemplifying a broader Democratic Party tendency to believe messaging alone can solve fundamental problems. No amount of messaging could separate Harris from her identity as a politician from America's most progressive state. And she can't explain it as a stregth or distance herself from it as a weakness.She's not a poor speaker— just uninspiring. Unlike George W. Bush, who wasn't particularly dynamic but clearly stood for something, Harris never conveyed a sense of deep conviction.Without conviction, you can't win. You need to spark something in swing voters or motivate your likely supporters to actually turn out. Without that spark, you have nothing. This is all compounded by the fact that she was dealt a tough hand. This is the second visit the Campaign Undetarker has made to the Democratic Party this cycle. President Joe Biden drops out before the convention, admitting to America that they'd reject him and the job he'd done as president. And in the late summer, Kamala faced a tricky choice. How do you handle Joe? She decided not to. Okay, allow me one bit of back seat driving for the campaign. In my opinion, her only viable path forward would have been resigning the Vice Presidency. She could have done this gracefully—simply stating she wanted to pursue her own vision of government. Would it have left the Biden Administration scandalized? Yes. But that's happening anyway. Why tie yourself to the mast of a sinking ship when you have a chance to win the presidency? This would have distinguished her from the administration without directly criticizing him. Now when she dodged she could always point to her sacrifice which would speak louder than any second guessing. The fact that this option wasn't seriously considered reveals how Democrats misread the situation. They treated her like an interchangeable part, failing to recognize that when crafting a multi-year national narrative, you can't take voters for granted. The audience isn't dumb. Shape the story how you want, they're not slow.You need to be alive. You need to be vital.Only bold moves could have saved her. Instead, we got a rehash of post-Obama Democratic presidential campaigns: celebrity endorsements, polished interviews, and rigid talking points. Not a speck of humanity in sight.When you're trailing by 30 points, you need to get aggressive. You need to try every strategy possible. If you're not willing to think creatively, what's the point?But this isn't simply a eulogy. No, this is a prelude. In politics, what is dead may never die. I believe Kamala Harris is the next governor of California and I think she might be popular. California might be the only state that would realistically think of Kamala as a centrist. She will have the political clout to do otherwise unpopular things that will be quality of life improvements to the citizens. She could go back to the style that suits her the best: Kamala the Law and Order Liberal. To use a football analogy. Mac Jones was a good quarterback in college at Alabama but has been mediocre on two NFL teams. But what if he could go back to college? There is every reason to believe he'd be awesome.Same for Governor Harris. But if she decides to run for president again? I'll be saying the same thing I said in 2019. The same thing I'm saying now. If she runs for president a third time, her ambitions will…REST IN PEACEChapters* (00:00:50) Introduction: Setting the Stage for 2025 Politics* (00:01:17) Kamala Harris's Presidential Eulogy* (00:13:23) PAX MAGA: Republican Dominance in the 2024 Election* (00:18:03) Biden's Legacy and Party Dynamics* (00:26:03) Reflections on Election Predictions* (00:40:01) Closing Thoughts: The Path Ahead This is a public episode.

Achieving net-zero carbon emissions is a massive challenge for every industry, but some have it harder than others. This week, Bloomberg Green senior reporter Akshat Rathi spoke with two Australian startups that are tackling carbon emissions in sectors whose carbon footprints are particularly intractable. Inspired by shark skin, MicroTau is creating a plastic film that makes airplanes more aerodynamic, reducing their fuel consumption. Novalith, meanwhile, is redesigning lithium battery manufacturing to make it cleaner. Both have received funding from the Clean Energy Finance Corporation in Australia. Rathi sat down with MicroTau founder Henry Bilinsky and Novalith Chief Executive Officer Steven Vassiloudis to understand the challenges their startups face and where they find optimism.
