Indian Motorcycle France has unveiled the Indian Challenger Venum, an exclusive special edition created in collaboration with combat sports giant Venum. Far more than a simple graphics update, this limited-run model is designed as a tribute to fight culture, aggression, and raw mechanical presence. It will be available only on special order in France, underscoring its role as a collectable rather than a mass-market offering.
Built on the muscular Indian Challenger platform — a performance bagger already known for its big V-twin attitude and long-distance capability — the Venum edition transforms the motorcycle into a bold statement piece. The standout visual element is a camouflage-inspired livery infused with Venum’s signature design cues, giving the bike the aura of a “modern warrior” aligned with MMA, boxing, and kickboxing aesthetics.
A major highlight is the Dr. Jekill & Mr. Hyde adjustable exhaust, reinforcing the theme of dual personality. With electronically switchable sound modes, riders can toggle between a subdued rumble and a loud, aggressive growl at the press of a button.
Production of the Challenger Venum will be extremely limited and built on demand, ensuring rarity for collectors and enthusiasts alike. The bike will make its public debut at WOW FC 25 at the Madrid Arena in December 2025 — fittingly, at a mixed martial arts event rather than a traditional motorcycle show.
Do you think such custom motorcycles or models coming off from such collabs should be introduced in the UAE market as well?
