Sport Chief

For the rider who wants to let loose and ride hard, Sport Chief is packed with premium components that enhance performance and style. 

Features may include:

LOCKING RIGID SADDLEBAGS

• Keep your cargo protected from the elements with the Sport Chief RT's Locking Rigid Saddlebags providing 10+ gallons of usable space - whether cruising around town, commuting to work, or on a weekend getaway, the forward opening design allows you to get the most out of your cargo space. 

POWERBAND AUDIO BLUETOOTH

• Speaker fits discreetly behind the Sport Chief RT's fairing and delivers crystal-clear audio even at highway speeds, allowing you to hear every beat with the dual 2.5 inch mid-range speakers, 1.5 inch tweeters, and a 4.5 inch woofer. 

PACKED WITH PREMIUM COMPONENTRY

• Sport Chief is the ultimate performance cruiser in the Indian Motorcycle lineup thanks to proven name brand components like longer Fox® piggyback rear shocks, 43mm KYB® inverted front forks, and dual Brembo® 4 piston calipers with semi-floating 320mm rotors. 

THUNDERSTROKE 116

• Everything about Sport Chief was purpose-built from the factory to perform. The legendary Air-Cooled Thunderstroke 116 V-Twin produces 120 ft-lbs of torque that dominates in all 6 gears, giving you the power to leave everything in your exhaust.​

CUSTOM STYLE COMMANDS RESPECT

• Sport Chief combines performance-enhancing features with a quarter fairing, 6 inch machined risers, moto handlebars, a 6.5 inch windscreen for wind protection, and an aggressive appearance that makes every ride a bold statement.
