#INDIAN CHIEF BLUETOOTH#
While our Classic test bike was stock, the Vintage came with a few extras from the long list of accessories such as Bluetooth handlebar-mounted chrome speakers so they don’t look out of place, extra fringes on the valances, lower deflectors and aftermarket pipes which turn the already baritone exhaust into a deeper, bass growl. However, the Indians add cruise control and internal wiring as standard. The Vintage bagger with quickly detachable screen costs $31,495 and is like a cross between the Heritage Softail ($27,899) with the features and handling of the Road King ($30,030). The Indian Chief Classic is like a Harley Deluxe, just chrome, traditional looks and nothing else. However, the black leather seat is starting to show signs of wear on the piping. The pale brown leather saddle and bags are gaining a nice patina of wear about them which gives the bike some lived-in character. These were demo models, so they have been sitting in the sun and rain all day and have been ridden frequently by customers.Īpart from a few scratches from careless riders, the paint and chrome are holding up nicely. But no matter what colour – black, red or blue – the paint is thick and lustrous. However, the most popular bike seems to be the blue Vintage and I have to agree. We had a blue Classic Indian Chief and a black Vintage for our test. If you like that traditional look, you will be bowled over by a closer inspection which shows quality trim and build such as internal bar wiring, steel braided brake lines, acres of chrome and fine details such as the Indian Chief head stamped on the front chassis stem and the foot brake reservoir. While we shot the above videos, we were stopped by passersby wanting to take photos, ask questions or just drool. (I’m taking a Chieftain for a longer test next week, including a 1500km round trip of northern NSW – stay tuned for more.) I recently snagged an Indian Chief Classic and Vintage for a short test and all my original impressions were instantly confirmed. However, it has been impossible to get another bike for a longer test ride and even the few available for demos at the dealerships have been busy with shoppers taking them for tests. I went to the Indian Chief media launch last year in northern NSW and instantly fell in love with all three models. Now supply is catching up with demand and even the marketing department at parent company Polaris Industries is releasing models for press evaluation. The aggressive, all blacked out design and features make an impressive statement on the road, and the specs have the power to back it up.Like many riders, you want an Indian Chief Classic – even lust after it – but until now you couldn’t have one because demand far exceeded supply. The Indian Chief Dark Horse makes a bold statement. Riders can choose between Tour, Sport, and Standard modes, depending on their personal preference and the driving conditions.

When the rider hits the throttle again, the rear cylinder effortlessly kicks back up to full power. Rear Cylinder Deactivation automatically shuts off the rear cylinder when the motorcycle is stopped in slower moving traffic, for ultimate rider comfort. A lightweight, cast aluminum frame allows the bike to be nimble, and to have maximum handling and control. Dual exhaust pipes give the motorcycle a distinctive, rebellious look and lets out rich, rumbling sound when riding. Featuring an award-winning Thunder Stroke 111 engine, that produces 119 ft-lbs of raw torque, delivers strong power in every gear. The bold and sleek appearance turns heads every time this beauty hits the pavement, and it has the characteristics to match. The goal was to create a blacked out, hard bagger for riders that want to travel in style and power aboard an All-American V-twin motorcycle. The Indian Chief Dark Horse made its debut in 2017.
