New look. Same soul. The Indian® Chieftain™
is in touch with its past, but far ahead of its time. It’s the first Indian
Motorcycle® ever with a hard fairing, hard saddlebags and unprecedented new
comfort and convenience features. It’s like no Indian Motorcycle® ever seen
before, yet its style makes clear it has the DNA of a legendary Indian
Motorcycle®.
Up front is an aerodynamic fork-mounted fairing
with integrated driving lights and LED turn signals. The Chieftain™ houses
extensive digital instrumentation – including tire pressure monitoring – and an
audio system with high-output speakers. Use the integrated Bluetooth®
smart-phone connection to tap into your phone’s music playlists. Raise and lower
the power-adjustable
windshield with the push of a button to customize airflow and protection – a
first for any fork-mounted fairing.
The spacious hard saddlebags are mounted on
quickrelease anchors and feature remote electric locks you control with a
console mounted button – or a convenient key fob.
Of course, the Indian Chieftain also features
iconic Indian Motorcycle elements such as valanced fenders, a rich genuine
leather saddle, and the lit War Bonnet atop the front fender. It also has
extensive chrome, keyless ignition, ABS, cruise control, throttle by wire, and
an innovative cast aluminum frame with integrated air intake.
Powering the new generation of Indian Motorcycle
riders down the open road is the Thunder Stroke™ 111.
This smooth, powerful and efficient new engine
combines both style and power, with engine finning inspired by Chiefs of the
1940s.
We made the Indian Chieftain about a comfortable ride and cutting edge
technology.
Now make it your own with Genuine Indian
Motorcycle Parts & Accessories and you’ll never be without what you need,
whether
touring your town or this great country.
The first Indian Motorcycle of its kind, the
Indian Chieftain maintains the legendary Indian Chief styling, while taking this
progressive machine to new heights with advanced features and premium comfort.
Unlike any Indian Motorcycle ever made, the Chieftain features a fairing with
integrated driving lights, and its power windshield is an industry-first for a
fork-mounted fairing. Standard features include hard saddlebags featuring remote
locks and quick-release anchors, a high-output audio system featuring integrated
Bluetooth® smartphone connectivity, and a tire pressure monitoring system.
“When we acquired Indian Motorcycle two and a
half years ago we set out to capture the heart, soul and legendary heritage of
this iconic American brand and then infuse it with unparalleled design,
engineering and state-of-the-art technology,” said Scott Wine, CEO of Indian
Motorcycle parent company Polaris Industries Inc. “On Saturday night we revealed
three stunning new Indian Chief models that represent the results of our journey
and the future of this brand. It was a triumphant day for all of us, and I know
motorcycling fans around the world proudly join us in celebrating Indian
Motorcycle and the realization that choice in American motorcycles is here to
stay.”

Classic Iconic Features
Indian Motorcycle® Badging One of the classic
elements of an Indian Motorcycle® is the vintage badging. Ever since the Indian®
script logo was first created in 1910, and Indian Motorcycle® Red became the
standard Indian Motorcycle® color in 1912, these features have made the Indian
Motorcycle® badging a hallmark of this historic brand.
War Bonnet Lighting the way as it has done since
1947 is the iconic War Bonnet. Mounted proudly atop the front fender in a chrome
frame, this light makes it clear, “This is a genuine Indian Motorcycle®.”
Valenced Fenders Stylish, elegant and functional,
the iconic valenced fenders, standard since 1940, enhance the flowing styling
lines of every Indian Motorcycle®. They also provide protection, effectively
blocking road spray and gravel kicked up by the tires.
Brake Caliper Covers Every Indian Motorcycle® is
equipped with outstanding brakes, and in keeping with our traditional styling,
we choose to cover the calipers. The result is a clean, stylish, beautifully
finished sheet metal - iconic Indian Motorcycle® valanced fenders.
