The 100th birthday is a top priority, so the Americans are launching a completely new one Indian Chief series consists of three models. The new Indian Chief Dark Horse, Indian Chief Bobber Dark Horse and Indian Super Chief Limited are all based on a tubular steel frame and powered by Thunderstroke V-Twin engines. The differentiation in style takes place via add-on parts and color design.

Three models – one technology kit

But let’s start with the similarities first. The classic tubular steel frame with its sloping line looks like a rigid frame. For this purpose, the rear spring struts, which can be adjusted in the preload, have been tilted forward extremely sharply and thus lengthen the frame tubes. The wheelbase is 1,626 mm, the seat height is just 662 mm and the ready-to-drive weight is 304 kilograms. The classic 46 mm telescopic fork comes with 132 millimeters of travel. The teardrop-shaped tank holds 15.1 liters of fuel, the indicators with integrated brake / taillights and the reflector are flanged to the short rear fenders. Like the front round headlights with daytime running lights, all lights use LED technology. Other features include keyless ignition, Pirelli Night Dragon tires, cruise control and the three driving modes Sport, Standard and Tour.
