The Indian Chief Classic
The Chief Classic is one of the most affordable motorcycles in the range. The motorcycle has genuine leather seats, valanced fenders and spoke wheels with instruments on top of the tank. While it looks retro, the bike has modern equipment like throttle by wire, ABS and even keyless ignition. Its current US pricing pegs the Chief Classic at Rs 11.61 lakh and the second bike in the lineup, the Chief Vintage, is available for roughly Rs 13.07 lakh. It comes with leather bags and Indian Motorcycles prefer calling it the soft Bagger. The Chief Classic is a very practical motorcycle considering how easy it is to switch between leisure, full-on touring and urban modes. The Chieftain is the flagship model of Indian Motorcycles. It has a fork-mounted fairing with a powered windshield and has hard saddle bags with a quick release mounting and a Bluetooth-enabled music system.
