ndian Motorcycle has released details
of a new consumer program called
Click.Deliver.Ride.
In the same guise as automotive
online sales like Carvarna.com, Click.
Deliver.Ride is a response to the fi-
nancial crisis caused by Covid-19, and
allows Indian Motorcycle customers to
purchase a new motorcycle from their
local dealer, fit the various custom parts they desire, and
have the bike delivered to their house.
"Over the last month, we've all had to adjust to a new
way of life and have had to alter the ways in which we
conduct our business," said Mike Dougherty, Indian Mo-
torcycle President. "Our hope is that Click.Deliver.Ride.
will help bring peace of mind to both our loyal customers
and our network of dealers."
Click.Deliver.Ride. is available for a limited time only
at participating dealers based on applicable laws and is
subject to change. CN

Cake Kalk INK SL
First Look
S
wedish electric motorcycle gurus Cake has just taken the
wraps off its fourth street-legal machine, the Kalk INK SL,
taking their overall lineup to six different motorcycles.
Utilizing the same 10kW motor, 2.6 kWh battery, 6061
aluminum chassis and swingarm as the Kalk OR, Kalk&
and Kalk INK, the INK SL tips the scales at a lithe 169
pounds and can reach a top speed of 56 mph.
According to Cake, the range of the INK SL extends to
around three hours if you're out in the woods, where partial
throttle is regularly applied. This should get you around 53
miles of range. If you're out on the streets, however, that
expected range drops significantly. You can expect to see
just 22 miles of range, while riding at about 45 mph.
You'll get three riding modes—Explore for city riding, Excite
for enduro off-roading and Excel for maximum
torque and speed (but drastically reduced
range). Compared to the Kalk INK, the SL
runs inverted motocross suspension with the
rear monoshock acting directly off the swing-
arm rather than employing a linkage.
The charging time from flat is quoted at
2.5 hours from a standard wall plug, with an
MSRP of $10,500. CN
Swedish brand Cake
is making some big
waves of late, with
the Kalk INK SL their
latest offering.
